Our preschool teacher, Acelia Sutton, has over 20 years of experience teaching preschool! She is very hands on, from having the kids helping her make play dough..to erupting volcanos! Add that to her supply of fingerplays and story boards and you have one great teacher!
Plus, I have to say, she loves her students!
I (Tanya Hofbauer) will be teaching Toddler Time. We will do lots of exporing. Lots of things to touch and feel. Lots of singing and dancing... we will keep things moving!
