This room is designed to enhance cognitive development. Children may choose from the large variety of materials and manipulatives which develop pre-reading, pre-writing, and pre-math skills, including:

• Number and counting games
• Matching, sorting, and classification games
• Sequencing
• Color recognition
• Alphabet stamps
• Sandpaper letters
• Alphabet playdough molds
• Magnetic letters
• Alphabet puzzles
• Parquetry blocks
• Interlocking cubes
• Clothespins games

In addition to the above, three choices are available on a daily basis:

• Listening center
• Beanbag chair with books
• Writing center

Our children are encouraged to make their own choices in each room. We believe that if children can make choices now, they will be better equipped to make the more important choices later in life.
