Pre-K Learning through Play

At Holly Tree, we are a play based company. Our objective is to learn through play! In our Pre-K class, along with our Kindergarten Readiness activities, we strive to find our kiddos having fun and being able to tell us what they are learning! Here are some pictures below with our Pre-K teacher, Ms. Shanice explaining what she found.



"Ava and Zella played teacher in the block center. The used the small people for 2 teachers and 2 students. The girls both said "mommies and daddies went to work!" Ava, Zella, and Ms. Shanice talked about our daily routine how we come to school and the parents go to work."



"Charlie cooked Ms. Destenee a nutrition snack. In the dramatic play center and. Destenee taught Charlie easy fractions. By cutting the orange into 4 slices it can still make a whole."




"George built a train using the snap numbers in the math center. George and I counted how many blacks we used to make the train. George was able to work on fine motor skills by snapping the numbers together. We then figures out the numbers were in the shape of a cube."
















"James pretended to be a photographer in the dramatic play center. He walked around the classroom taking pics of his friend. James stopped by Ms. Shanice and learned how to take a #selfie"
