Children are invited to discover and learn in multi-dimensional, playful, and open-ended ways. Days are filled with interesting diverse activities. A variety of experiences help children make connections and sense of their world. Themes and learning stations are part of what makes this room a fun place to go where children can learn and grow.

Five's Room Foundations:

• To develop fine motor skills, strength and dexterity, children have access to real tools such as hammer and nails.

• To develop fine motor skills, children have access to puzzles of varying difficulty, variety of blocks, and beads to string.

• To enhance scientific skills, children participate in experiences to compare and draw conclusions.

• To promote gross motor skills, we encourage children to participate in active music, play, and outdoor games.

• To build awareness of health and safety, we schedule visits from community helpers including: fire fighters, police officers, doctors, and dental hygienists.
