Sensorial Exploration (Color Cooked Spaghetti)
Sensorial exploration is a main component of the Under 3 community. The classroom is composed of sensorial activities that the children are able to work with every day. Sitting, standing, or at a mat, the child is able to work independently with various materials including pasta, rice, oatmeal, feathers, cornmeal, sand, and quite often water. In exploring these materials, the children are able to enhance their sense of smell, touch, sight, and hearing. Children are also able to partake in dramatic play with a collection of animals and scoops as well as explore different facets of expressive language.
