Preschool Presents its Successes

Preschool teachers report their latest innovations at the Somerville BOE meeting on January 10, 2012.  Look for new and exciting uses of technology--the preschoolers now use IPads to support their learning!  Working on strengthening the physical core of each student through thirty minutes daily of gross motor activity helps to increase small motor dexterity as well--leading the way to writing.  Interactive read alouds offer the district's youngest learners the opportunity to think critically, make predictions, increase their vocabularies, and--most of all--to find their voices as they express their interests, hopes, and the wonder that comes from interacting with literature.
