We are currently learning about Reggio inspired environments and working on QRIS using Enviroment Rating Scale (ECERS).I currently work with a very creative teacher, who inspires me Mr. West. I have been teaching preschool for 15 years. I love children and marvel at a child's curiosity.

Tops and Bottoms Literacy Theme




 Stem and root discovery 

They had lots of fun with carrots






Do you like carrots?

How do you think carrots grow

Making our own flowers using paper,scissors , cupcake cups,  glue and seeds


Seed sequence

What does a seed need to grow?


Nature Walk
Looking for items for our bark art.

I love it when the Bears come up with ideas all their own.


We used tacky and foam glue so the heavy items would stay.



Of course we had to display these wonder works of art.

Drawing trees to latter watercolor.

I love to have the children draw, color or paint in all areas of the room, even the floor.

Roll the dice and stamp a number 


Just another great extension to our plant theme
