Dear Families, 

I am excited to announce that the Dramatic Play Center will add an Animal Hospital!  We will build math, literacy, science, and social skills during our pretend play! 

Play is powerful!  Learning through play creates meaningful learning opportunities.  Your child will be...

• Reading and writing various pet reports

• Reading numbers on reports and various tools

• Writing their friend's names to make appointments

• Reading labels throughout the center

• Using rich vocabulary related to pets when they interact with others

• Counting money

• Writing numbers to create receipts

• Examining bones on real pet x-rays

• Measuring pets with rulers

• Talking about animals needs'

Students are constantly building social skills during pretend play, too!  During play, students will take turns, share, wait, control their impulses, and express their feelings through appropriate gestures, actions, and words.

Thank you for supporting our learning!
