유치원 및 미취학 아동을 위한 장난감 자동차, 비행기, 기차 및 자동차 놀이 그룹

This class is about cars, planes, trains, boats, construction/farming equipment and all other automobiles/vehicles. Students will engage with Teacher Lily (Mrs. Palmer) and other students through discussions, show and tell, play, drawing, and other fun activities. The focus of this group is to have fun talking about and sharing different types of toy automobiles and equipment while practicing age appropriate social skills. This group will also provide an opportunity to socialize/play with other students of the same age group with similar interests.  Students who feel more comfortable observing & listening during class are welcome to draw and participate/share at his/her own pace. 

For parents: I hope to provide an alternative play option for your children when other social activities are not possible.  Although this is an ongoing course, it is absolutely okay to sign up for just one class if you cannot commit to weekly classes. I am listing this as an ongoing course one day a week, but I am willing to add time/days/frequency.  Please feel free to request times and I will see if I am available to make a group on the time/day requested.  

Weekly Themes/Topics: (Topics may change throughout course based on learner interest and requests). We will have a theme, but learners can share any car or automobile that they would like to during every class.

(If your student is interested in a certain topic, please feel free to send me a message and I would love to create a class session with that topic).

note: If your student is the only one enrolled as class approaches, my preschool age son will happily join the class (if available) to make sure the class has other friends ready to play.

Note: Since this is primarily a play-based class with other younger learners, I generally will not share recordings for safety and privacy reasons.  However, if it is possible based on class material, I can sometimes create at home activity sheets from my slides for learners, who may have missed class.  So feel free to reach out to me if that is something that you might be interested in.

The teacher will occasionally use excerpts of story books and quick transition video clips (with author's/performer's/creator's permissions) to introduce an activity or allow the students to move/play a game.  These will only be used as supporting materials to provide opportunities for social engagement/movement and will not be used for long periods of the class.
