Early Childhood Highlights
Outdoor Learning at John Haley
Our PreK tricycle path construction has begun and our early childhood students at John Haley have been making great use of the outdoor water tables. Water play is an essential part of early childhood learning. It gives students the opportunity to develop gross and fine motor muscles and skills as well as hand/eye coordination. It gives opportunities to develop crucial social skills with other children as well as build their language and communication skills. Water play stimulates creativity and provides opportunities to problem solve, question, explore, and experiment as well as have fun.
