Class Experience

"Circle time provides a time for listening, developing attention span, promoting oral communication, and learning new concepts and skills. It is a time for auditory memory, sensory experiences, socialization, and a time for fun. Circle time can be a complex, dynamic interaction among adults, children, and resources used. "  -Wikepedia

 In this  Preschool class, children will engage in activities that introduce  basic shapes, colors,  letters, and numbers.    Finger plays, songs and rhymes  and more will be infused into our circle time. As well as movement , relaxation techniques and  exercise.  

We want to build life long learners  by providing activities that make learning fun and engaging.
Repetition is key in getting children to learn.  Homework will be  interactive activities that help to reinforce skills learned. 

Our routine each session will include:
Calendar  Activities:

Georgia Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Greetings!
My name is Sheridan and I am an early childhood educator.  Currently I teach Pre-K in an Elementary school in Georgia.  Prior to that, I taught 4th grade, ran my own family childcare program in my home for 14 years, and taught 5th grade, Kindergarten and 1st grade for 10 years in Brooklyn , NY.  I have a master degree in Teaching Reading and a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education. 
I believe that all children can learn and that learning can be fun.  My goal is to build life long learners . We are never to young or old to learn! 
  I have 4  grown children of my own and 1 grandson .I love music, dance and cooking and creating healthy meals for myself and my family.  I have been vegetarian for the last 28 years.  I believe in natural healing and love sharing the little I know with others !
