Importance of Sensory
As if Infant One was not already loaded with sensory toys and activities, the teachers in there have added even more! One of our friends uses hearing aids and is learning to communicate through other senses. Having the feels and sights throughout the room for him will help develop all the same styles of communicating as his classmates.

Baby Chats
Morning baby chats are an imperative part of the schedule in our Infant One class. They love to not only face each other and play independently, but to be able to communicate while doing so. With all the babbles and bubbles, they sure are a chatty bunch!

Imaginative Play
Preschool 3 was busy this morning in open centers. We love seeing them choose their own center to play in and more importantly how they choose to play in it. Imaginative play at this age allows each child to play and learn about different topics in their own way. Whether they are using the tool bucket and tools the correct way as they have been shown, or if they are using them for a completely other activity, they are still engaging with their developing mind.

Little Readers
Toddler 3 was using their small group time to look at books this morning. Although they are not quite studying sight words or letter recognition, they are still telling the stories in front of them. Using the pictures and the verbal cues from their teachers, they are able to understand the sequence of their favorite story.

Imaginative Play
Open centers is the best time for imaginative play! Preschool 4 was busy in dramatic play center this afternoon. From veterinarians and doctors, to princesses and wood shop, they all use their own idea of what these are to play them out in person. Having the children use "free play" allows them to bring all of this to life!

Number Recognition
Working on number recognition in Preschool 2 this morning. Using the visual of the gingerbread men and having them match with a number is a great way to introduce this skill. These are simple activities that can be done at home too.

National Young Readers Day
Today is National Young Readers Day! We had the opportunity to have a few of our parents come in to class and read with us. The kids love having any sort of guest, especially when it is their own mom or dad. We love to include the family on events such as this to get them involved in our classrooms more.
