Hello! My name is Elizabeth! Thank you for visiting my page. I am so thrilled to have the opportunity to get to know you and your child. I have been working in childcare for the past 5 years, primary with 4's and 5's. I am pursuing my education in Early Childhood Education at Central Piedmont Community College and will be graduating in May 2017. In my class I believe that your children will learn through so many fun and exciting experiences. Below is my contact information. If you ever have any questions or any inquiries, please let me know! Best wishes!
Health and Nutrition Survey Results

I would like to thank all of the parents who participated in my survey about young children's health and nutrition. Your child's health and nutrition is so important to us and we want to do all possible to education and inform them on how to live a healthy lifestyle. I was extremely pleased with the results from the survey. It shows that many children eat at home most nights of the week and eat a lot of proteins, fruits and vegetables. I also found that most children drink water at home- that is AWESOME! Over the next month we will spend a lot of time focusing on food and drink nutrition. Please help support our class by continuing to support these healthy habits at home. 
Friendship Matters

Each of the stories below have a lesson about friendship and how important it is to have them. They will teach your children valuable lessons on how to be a good friend. Use the link under each book to explore each book and listen together to grow your child's perception of friendship. ​

Want something to do at home? Check out my input on a great website!
Website: www. starfall.com

Starfall is a free public website that supports learning to read and reading using phonics. They use a systematic approach along with audio and visual activities. The games are designed to take learning step by step, and not overwhelm with information overload. The interactivity includes, but is not limited to, letting the children hear the sound of a letter, showing short films and puppet shows and showing how words are built with fun games. When used in moderation and with supervision, this website is a great alternative to other technology uses. Although the website is free to the public, you can pay a small membership fee and receive more games and worksheets for your children. I would recommend this website as an alternative to other technology uses because it takes learning step by step and does not overwhelm your child if used correctly. I can't wait to hear how you like it! 


Starfall.com is a program service of Starfall Education Foundation, a 501(c)(3) public charity. The website opened in September of 2002 as a free public service and social enterprise supported by the Polis-Schutz family. On July 1, 2015, the Polis-Schutz family donated their full interest in Starfall to the Starfall Education Foundation.

Starfall has been teaching children to read with phonics for well over a decade. Our systematic approach, in conjunction with audiovisual interactivity, is perfect for preschool, kindergarten, first grade, second grade, special education, homeschool, and English language development (ELD, ELL, ESL). Starfall is an educational alternative to other entertainment choices for children.

In our classroom, it is extremely important for children to learn through play and through social experiences. Our goal every day as teachers is to facilitate learning but not overstep our boundaries and interfere with natural learning. We hope you can see by these pictures all of the different experiences that your children learn through every day.
