Our Colorful Classroom!
Take a tour of our classroom!
Coat Room
Hang your backpack, leave your shoes, and come on in for a fantastic day at school!
Dramatic Play Center
The world of play helps children learn about themselves, others, and the community in which they live! In our Dramatic Play Center, we learn problem solving, creative thinking, and language skills. We also learn about sharing, develop cooperation skills, and practice appropriate social skills!
Word Wall
Our word wall will have the names of each child, high frequency words, and other important words to our classroom. The children refer to this wall when reading and writing! This helps with our language development, reading and writing skills, and promotes independent learning!
Our Table
This is where the magic happens! Our little ones become independent learners here! Independent learners are: self-reliant, aware of their strengths and weaknesses, can make decisions, connect classroom learning with their real world, can set and reach goals, and are intrinsically motivated!
There's something about a box of new crayons.... it attacks each one of my 5 senses. Crayons make me happy!!
We could learn a lot from crayons; some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, while others bright, some have weird names, but they all have learned to live together in the same box. ~Robert Fulghum
The Rug
Many wonderful things happen at our rug! Rug time provides a time for listening, developing attention span, teacher and student directed learning, promotes oral communication, socialization, and of course, FUN!
The Science Center
Our science center helps motivate and encourage our students' natural curiosity through discovery and exploration. We use our science journals to ask questions, make predictions, and draw conclusions!
Block Center
In addition to increasing academic and social skills, children who explore the block center learn their shapes, use creativity, and build motor skills!
Classroom Library
It is said that if you open a book, you open an child's imagination! I have been collecting children's books for years now, and I can never get enough! Your child will be read to every day at Red Rooster Academy! I believe in the To-With-By method of teaching! Read TO your child, Read WITH your child, and the book will be read BY your child back to you!
"There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate's loot on Treasure Island."
— Walt Disney

There you have it! A room where children's minds will grow! Thank you for taking a tour of our classroom!
