At the beginning of every school year, it's all about names, names, names! Children love to learn about a word that is most special to them- their name. We start off the year by having children sign into their classrooms, create name art, and even use technology to write their names. This work continues throughout the year as children build the foundation to learning to read here at the YMCA of Metro Atlanta!
