Star Providers for August and September Shine!!


Mrs. Johnson is one of the four year old teachers at Millersville Child Development Center. She has devoted some extra time to making the Creative Curriculum easier for her to utilize and organize.  Mrs. Jeannie wanted to have a way to ensure that each objective and dimension to the Creative Curriculum was being seen for each child.  She created a documentation sheet that allows her to check off each objective and dimension for every child, every three months.  This took extra time and effort however the reward will be in knowing that each child’s development is being documented.  Thanks to Mrs. Jeannie for going above and beyond.
Ms. Rinehardt and Mrs. Bowman are the teachers in the infant classroom at First Baptist Child Development Center. The team, Ms. Bowman and Ms. Rinehardt, worked together with the support of several other staff in the center to create their own blocks.  They utilized the website www.pinterest.com to locate a pattern for blocks that would be safe and fun of the children in the classroom.  This team of teachers has spent many hours sewing their new blocks and took it one step further to include a bell inside each block to encourage the children’s curiosity. The teachers have been hard at work thinking outside the box.  Thanks ladies!!
