My Project

What I Love About My Students

My preschool students are naturally curious, eager to explore, and excited to learn through hands-on experiences.

They learn best through hands-on exploration, asking questions, experimenting, and discovering how the world works. Their curiosity inspires opportunities that build creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork.

The Science Viewer will allow students to closely observe objects from nature, classroom materials, and everyday items.

Children will investigate leaves, rocks, insects, and other objects, developing observation skills and scientific inquiry. This resource encourages students to ask questions, make predictions, and discover details they may not otherwise notice.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
