Mrs Black's students completed the "Trash to Toy” project as part of their childcare unit. Students had to create a toy using recycled or otherwise trash items. After creating the toys, students had to present to the class and explain the appropriate age range, any safety concerns, and what skills and type of development could be gained with their toy. They spoke about things like fine motor skills, language development, creativity, imagination, diversity, basic leaning like colors, counting, and so much more! It was fun to see these kiddos think outside the box, work very well in their groups, and make amazing creations!

Summer School Enrollment is now open. A form will need to be completed for each student in attendance. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScIV6-MfGSc_NnuvUKOtDWDdfAEvIYG2GJAHHvPyM3b8Ky5nQ/viewform?usp=sf_link
