My Project

My students are always excited to learn something new and can't wait to practice what they've learn through their play. The items selected such as the Reading Canopy, Magna Tiles, and Magnetic Kits will allow them to do just that, seamlessly. The resources requested will complement the Creative Curriculum program that was adapted last year in our school. While teaching the program for the first time last year I came across many lessons where I had wished I had some supplemental materials to make the content really come to life. These materials will enhance content and provide lots of hands on learning experiences for my students.
