Corners
Some benefits are:
- Develop autonomy, responsibility (with work, materials, and other friends), respect for turns, self-control, frustration, sharing, socialization, problem solving, and decision-making skills.
- Promote sensory perception, fine motor skills, attention, and memory.
- Enable teachers to identify children’s strengths and weaknesses.
- Develop all dimensions through play and meaningful learning.
- Encourage research.
- Help children become aware of their progress.
- Encourage creativity and imagination.
- Allow and accommodate differences, interests, and learning rhythms.
Teach something new or develop a skill with fewer children.
Our corners:
COGNITIVE: Pre-math activities, concepts, language, perception, and thinking are worked on.
ROLE PLAY: Activities that involve taking on roles or actions from everyday life are promoted. This is one of the most important corners because it involves everything (motor skills, cognitive skills, emotional skills, language, etc.).
DRAWING OR CREATION: The aim is to develop manual skills and abilities, creativity, and imagination. Different materials (sheets, sandpaper, vinyl, aluminum foil, floor, wood, etc.), positions (lying face down, face up, sitting in a chair, on balls, kneeling, curled up), and tools (paintbrushes, colors, chalk, brushes, pencils, punches, markers, crayons, etc.) are used. This corner also includes activities that promote literacy and body awareness.
FINE MOTOR SKILLS: This corner aims to develop motor skills and coordination and promote the dissociation of hands, wrists, elbows, and shoulders.
