December Extra Post

The new year is finally here! A new year brings resolutions and new goals, in regards to my senior project there is a lot I hope to accomplish. I wasn't able to go to my mentorship these past two weeks because it is a school and like us a break was given. However, I have been talking with my mentor over the phone and we have been talking about possible things to do for the kids this upcoming year which I am looking forward to.
My essential question talks about what a child needs to learn in preschool -skill wise- in order to succeed in kindergarten which is the start of their education for years to come. So I've been looking at possible crafts and assignments to have the children do to focus on specific skills: motor, reading, vocabulary, writing, etc.
I found this very useful link that shows me a variety of activities a child can do that primarily focuses on their motor skills.
When my mentorship resumes a normal school day my mentor and I will be going over some of the activities I found and will be, hopefully, doing it soon with pictures to come.
In the meantime I will be enjoying the rest of my break, with Netflix, a nice fire, and my warm pjs :).
Happy Holidays!
