CARITA MYLLYMÄKI
Early education teacher
Hi! My name is Carita. My goal is to provide love, tenderness and care to every individual in the group. All of the children should feel safe and equal. I enjoy seeing them learn new things. I also love to introduce different kinds of sport activities during the week. These things are close to my heart!
In the Happy Hedgehogs group the children learn to be more independent, getting dressed and undressed by themselves and helping with small tasks in the classroom. They develop self-awareness, self-concept, and are introduced to cultural and language awareness.
​
They participate in activities that develop team work and social skills, and focus on improving their fine and gross motor skills in preparation for their preschool year.
​
The English language is taught through songs, daily routines, morning circle, weekly topics, learning stations, gym, art, and music. English is introduced to the children through the use of simple instructions, phrases and vocabulary. This group has personality, is always up for a good challenge, and is, of course, a very happy group!
