This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My students are expressive, creative and love to learn! They enjoy dramatic arts and love to draw. These students also love dance, drama, art, music and peer relationships. We are a community that helps each other in the classroom on a daily basis. This group of students love writing creative stories, hands-on math activities, science and reading great picture books. They love non-fiction literature and they also love animals. We are working on acquiring a class pet -- a BETTA FISH!
My Project
Building a classroom community is essential for these young second grade students. As a community member, students learn that their contributions make us stronger and our learning environment excellent. A common goal, like a class pet, can strengthen our bonds and give us common purpose. We can also develop our learning goals of citizenship, measurement, animal classification, changes over time, and force and motion. The aquarium items will be fascinating for my students to study. They will learn responsibility through feeding the fish, and maintaining the fishes diet during school breaks with the automatic feeder. The thermometer will teach the students about reading temperature. And studying the fishes anatomy through drawing and illustrations will excite these curious learners!
