My Project
These items will help encourage and promote positive learning with our Creative Curriculum. These items will help the students interact, discover, and motivate them to learn about studies we will be doing for the upcoming school year. A few of our studies are: trees, clothing, light, insects, gardening, and buildings.
My students love having a hands on experience.
The tree materials will be able to be used with the tree and gardening study. They will be able to explore them and create a better understanding of how gardening and science works. The light table and light blocks would be a great addition to my room and would provide the kids with another new learning experience. I plan to use the tye-dye kits to enhance the clothing study by letting the kids get creative and artsy.
My goals for this project is to provide my kids with more of a hands on experience. I want to enhance their learning experiences as much as I can. I want to encourage them with fun and invigorating activities.
