Learning at Tate Learning Center


Literacy Lab
Welcome to the Literacy Lab, your special place to become a confident reader! Here, we'll learn all about letters and sounds by doing fun things, like building words with blocks and using your talker to help us read. You can always show what you know by pointing, looking, or using your device, because there are many ways to be a reader. We'll practice with cool books about things you love, using sounds we've already learned so you can read the words yourself. Everything in the Lab is built to make you a great reader in the way that’s best for you!
BAM-WOW!
Welcome to BAM-WOW: Book-A-Month, Word-Of-the-Week curriculum. This is our special place for exploring stories and learning new words! Each month, we will dive into one amazing book together, and every week, we'll hunt for a special "Word of the Week" inside the story. We'll add these new words right onto your talker or in your Dictionary, and you can share all your great ideas by pointing, looking, using your dictionary, or using your device. This is all about having fun with books and learning powerful new words to share what you think!

S.T.E.P.S
Welcome to S.T.E.P.S., our class for learning about Social Thinking + Emotional Processing Skills. Here, we'll practice understanding our own feelings and figuring out what our friends might be feeling, too. We will add new words to your talker or journal to help you share your ideas as we learn how to solve problems and work together while doing it. It’s all about practicing the skills you need to be a good friend and feel confident about who you are, and when you're with others!
Creation Station
Welcome to the Creation Station, your special place to be both a scientist and an artist! In here, we’ll do cool science experiments to see how things work and then create amazing art to show what we’ve learned and imagined. We’ll add new words to your talker so you can share all your creative ideas, and we have special tools to help everyone make awesome projects. This is your space to explore, get creative, and make something wonderful!


Tech Connect
Welcome to Tech Connect, our class for learning how to use technology to connect with people and the world! We’ll practice doing cool things like sending messages to friends, video-calling family, and using the internet to find fun videos and answers to our questions. We’ll even learn how to use your talker to type on a computer, and we have special tools to help everyone use a phone or tablet. This class is all about using technology safely to explore your interests and talk with the people you care about!
