The following is a description of some of the basic learning centers that are in my classroom. Young children show us what they know through their artwork. They learn by using the senses and the Art Center provides a multisensory experience for them. The Block Center is an area that provides children with interesting construction materials for designing and building. It allows small groups of children to share materials, work together to make designs, and work out problems.
Children learn about size, shapes, measurements, distance, and other building skills.
The Block Center includes a variety of wooden, cardboard, and plastic blocks, boxes, straws, pens, pencils, paper, trucks, road signs, and other related accessories. The Book Center is a comfortable place for the children to explore and enjoy good books. Favorite books are displayed with cozy space for reading alone or with a friend. Children's books will be displayed that allows them to be viewed from the front. The most recent favorites are rotated in and out of the center.
