Strategies

Strategies for Supporting Children's Pretend Play

• Imitate actions and sounds with children

• Provide open ended materials and props for pretending (ie. Real materials , phones,  pans , clothes)

• Participate in pretend play respectfully,  taking cues from children
     - Follow the theme and content set by the children.
     - Offer suggestions within the pretend situation.
     - Respect children's response to your ideas

Our Method of Learning

Active Learning !

Active learners become engaged in play and problem solving because they themselves choose to do so . Motivation theorist suggest that children choose to become engaged in activities and interactions that are enjoyable, related to their current interests , and that allow them to experience feelings of control, success and competence. 

REMINDER !

Just a reminder Daddy and Me day will be this week Thursday Oct. 23 and Friday Oct.24. We are aware of all of our military families and fathers if dads arent able to show uncles, grandpas are invited as well. And moms dont feel left out you are welcome as always . Please remember to bring your pumpkins and snacks are optional. We look forward to seeing you all .
