Hey Sheryl I just wanna say that I love the approach you are now taking to make your videos. Showing the activities throughout your day. Continue to be the wonderful and inspirational teacher that you are. ❤

Wow i love the family wall and the quiet corner. This would've been great if my kinder had done this with me but instead i just held onto a lipstick my mum gave to keep safe until she picked me up.

This is the best environment for kids.
I have adhd, so i would have thrived in this learning environment.
Good on you and thank you for giving children time to warm up and feel at home, preschool can be pretty hard especially when it comes down to being away from their parents, some children.

I worked at a kindergarten where the children would come in play and then sit on a mat for reading time. One student was struggling as he first entered the classroom and his mum told him to stop misbehaving but i could tell he just wanted some quiet time to warm up to everything. So i as soon as i mentioned cars and a book, he relaxed more into the first stage.

Thank you for this video- not only is it amazing to see the way your room is set up, it's cool to see how the kids are just playing away! Starting procedures, using consistency, it's all good!

I've been asked to help upgrade our 2-3 preschool program here in Burundi at an English speaking school. My first plan is just to add more toys for play, and 3D examples as they learn.

Very nice space and some good resources. Personally I prefer the preschools of Reggio Emilia and Anji play in China which do not focus on direct academic instruction with such young children. I try to avoid questions in which I know the answer also. It's a lovely gym space.

[abbyjohnson]

Oh wow, your school looks like a paradise compared to mine 😢

[KachPrettyLife]
