Yellow Room
Our mission statement is to cultivate genuine, happy, and trusting relationships so that children can become enthusiastic lifelong learners as well as kind, empathetic and thoughtful adults.
We value and respect the needs and strengths of all children and are dedicated to celebrating the individual child while encouraging participation in a collaborative, inclusive, and respectful community.
We use developmentally appropriate, play-based curriculum to build on children’s natural curiosity and enthusiasm for learning in order to provide an engaging, fun-filled program that meets the needs of the whole child.
What is STEAM?
STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math.
- STEAM encourages students to BE CURIOUS and ASK QUESTIONS so that they can build knowledge about the world around them by observing, discovering and investigating.
*Why is STEAM necessary in a preschool classroom?
- STEAM explorations give children the skills needed for life long learning. Children learn how to observe, ask questions and investigate. They deepen problem-solving skills that lead to innovative thinking.

I have had the privilege of being a part of The Logan Team since 2019. I have taught for about 23 years at different schools in and around Los Angeles. I have had the opportunity to teach Pre-K through 8th grade. I have worked as a preschool teacher for about 16 years. I genuinely enjoy working and caring for preschoolers. My philosophy is that each child is unique, therefore they learn and thrive at their own pace.

What is Phonemic Awareness?
Phonemic awareness is the ability to understand that spoken words are made up of individual sounds called phonemes, and it’s one of the best early predictors for reading success.
