In the earliest years, children are intellectually and physically learning through their five senses. It is so important to begin tip toeing into the process of providing art and sensory activities for our youngest learners. Yet, many teachers are hesitant or many not know how to implement art and sensory activities. Join us as we explore useful activities set-up and clean-up techniques. Enhance the vocabulary used while teaching and working with children as they explore a variety of art and sensory materials.
In this workshop, we will look at the role of “tinkering and making” in creative problem solving and learning. Read alouds will be the foundation for introduction to problem solving activities that support cognitive and social emotional development.
