Learning Through Play at St. James FDK!

St. James full day kindergarten student Thomas Mullaly uses Lego to explore colour sorting and shape making during his play-based learning centres. October 20, 2014 - At St. James Catholic Elementary School Full Day Kindergarten students are encouraged to explore and develop new knowledge/skills during self-directed learning centres. In building centres that are equipped by the FDK team (teachers Mme. Belanger and Miss Hoeg), students use Lego to strengthen math, visual arts and fine motor concepts/skills. The beauty of the program is that students are learning through play! Share Tweet
