Preschool Enrichment Class-Math Games!

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).  Though the focus of this class will be pre and early math skills, I will also be touching on literacy/phonics skill as well as pre/early writing skills.  Some of the different math skills we will be learning in class are counting, number recognition, number association, and charting.

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, and other topics/skills 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.

😊Social/Emotional Development: I like to begin each class by greeting my learners and asking them about their morning and something fun they have done over the last couple days.  Throughout class I will stimulate and encourage conversation about what learners are doing and what their interests are. I will also lead the learners in making connections in class that relate to real-life experiences with all conversations relating to the social/emotional development of the learner.

✋Physical Development: Writing and drawing (fine motor), counting with fingers (fine motor)

🧠Cognitive Development: 
✔Pre/Early Writing- Practicing writing numbers, art (drawing and counting with shapes)
✔Phonics- Letter sounds for colors (charting activity)
✔ Math- Counting, Number Scavenger Hunt (Learners will choose a number to find items hidden in plastic eggs-number recognition), Color Charting (learners will count items of same colors found in scavenger hunt and will make a chart to show how many-number association, charting)

🔹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. 

-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!
