This area in the classroom aids in the development of concentration,
coordination, order and independence. Children learn self-confidence and
refine their motor skills. Lessons include care of self and care of the
environment. For example, dressing skills like buttoning and zipping,
pouring of water, spooning and polishing. The children also assist with
snack preparation and caring for the classroom pets. Grace and Courtesy
lessons are given on how to handle situations socially like how to say
“Excuse me”, how to blow your nose and how to invite a friend to play
with you.
