Light table explorations

Our light table has been getting lots of action this year from my new students during our time in free play and here are a few of the things the children have been exploring on the light table…

Ice pops on the light table (unfrozen)

Shapes on the light table (colored plexiglass donated to me)

A variety of toys on the light table…

Cutting on the Light Table

Discovery bottles on the light table

Cars on the light table

And after school, my grandson has been doing a little light table exploration too…

All the children know how to turn the light table on and off by themselves (even my grandson can do it) and the children are free to explore most things on the light table during our center time…

Somehow things just look different when you put it on a light table…

Every time I think I know everything I need to know about teaching young children, God says, "Hold on a minute!" and gives me a new challenge.

Let me tell ya...

With each new challenge that you overcome, you will find yourself better equipped and more passionate about teaching young children.

God didn't call wimps to lead, teach, or care for His children. Nope, he has high expectations, so get ready. You will have to give your very best but after teaching for over 30 years, I can tell you that it is a wonderful and rewarding journey.

Whenever your calling feels hard, just remember, 'He who began a good work in you (and in the children you serve) will be faithful to complete it.'
