Ms. Amy's Class (1 year olds) Fall 2013

These awesome kids in my class
have been very busy learning while
having lots of fun this Fall!!
It's amazing how much they have grown
and changed just since August.
 
"The Value of Play"
'You say that you love your children, and are
concerned that they learn today.....

...as am I, that's why I'm providing a variety
of kinds of play.  You are asking what's the value
of having your children play? Your daughter's
creating a tower, she may be a builder someday....

...You're asking me the value of blocks and sand
and clay.  Your children are solving problems, They will
use that skill every day...

You're questioning the interest centers.  They just
look like useless play.  Your children are making choices,
they'll be on their own someday...


...You're worried your children aren't learning
and later they'll have to pay.  They're learning a
pattern for learning, for they'll be learners always.'

me be a part of your child's
life!
