Preschool Enrichment Class- Colors and Shapes

Hello parents and learners!  Thank you for checking out my class!  Here is what you can expect:

My focus during this class will be on the whole development of the child (physical, cognitive, social/emotional).  We will touch on a large variety of subjects such as literacy/phonics, math, science, and pre/early writing skills.

The teaching style I use is a combination of teacher-lead and child-lead learning experiences.  While I have a plan and direction for class, the curriculum is meant to be adaptable to the learners' engagement and interest.  For example, I will teach letters, letter sounds, numbers, etc. as they come up in class.  An activity may be extended or shortened depending on the interest and engagement of learners.  

Below is a sample of some activities we will do in this class.  Please note, that all of these activities may not be included in this class.  Activities will be based on the engagement, interests, and level of development of learners.  Also, please note that every activity can be modified in class to fit the developmental needs of your learner. You will also see that many activities will overlap into other areas of development.  This is curriculum is intentionally created this way so that your learner gets the most out this class.

✋Physical Development: "The Color Song" (spatial awareness, gross motor skills, self-awareness), writing/drawing (fine motor skills)

😊Social/Emotional Development: Sharing time: What is your favorite color? What color is your favorite animal?  What color is your favorite food?

🧠Cognitive Development: 
✔Pre/Early Writing- making rainbows (pre-writing), learning to draw shapes, writing letters and numbers
✔Literacy- learning letters and letter-sounds in color names, reading the story, "Colors Blocked"
✔ Math- learning shape names, learning how many sides shapes have, game-How many "color" items do you see? Write the number 
✔Science-Mixing paint to create new colors

🔹Here are a few other things to note about my class:🔹

-We will be doing drawing and writing during class.  Please have a whiteboard and/or paper, as well as crayons and other writing tools available for your learner to use during class. To do the science portion of this class, I ask that you provide your child with red, yellow, and blue paint.  If you are not able to provide your learner with these supplies, do not worry!  Your learner will still be able to benefit from the experience by watching and engaging through conversation.

-I will mute all students when needed to minimize background noise.  Please make sure your learner either knows how to mute/unmute themselves, or I ask that you be near-by so you can help them with this.

-All of the activities I do during class can be modified to meet individual learner needs and I will do so accordingly.  However, if you feel your learner still needs a little extra help, feel free to step in!  I love when parents partner with me in the learning experience!

I am so excited to meet your learner in class!
