Holly Tree makes Learning fun!
Playing a math game with fly swatters...now that's the way to learn numbers!
Remembering and understanding concepts are the keys to learning.
What better way to make that happen than making it fun!
When key concepts and skills development are actually
part of a natural process, such as game play, then
children are more likely to comprehend in a real-world way.
When skills develop in this way, then they can put their skills to use and build and grow.
This article, "Hands On is Minds On"
from Scholastic helps explain!
Water Play can work in the same sort of way. It's hands
on exploration incorporation of a variety of skills;
everything from building hand muscles to measurement to critical thinking skills--
and it uses most all of the senses!
We love fun and learning at Holly Tree!
