My Project
My students spend 2 hours a day engaged in student-directed activities, also known as choice time. They are able to pick any learning area they want to visit and explore. I’ve noticed my previous classes love the science area; however, they are quick to leave due to lack of materials. Every choice they make is an opportunity to learn and grow whether they are doing it independently, with a peer, or a teacher.
Please help me provide materials, X-ray pictures, sensory sound eggs, animals across the land mini set, mystery feel box and treasure tubs, that can be switched out throughout the year and used in multiple ways to keep my students engaged.
Keeping students engaged in science will stimulate more conversations which will increase language skills and build on students' vocabulary. It will also nurture growth in other areas of development such as critical thinking skills. I will be able to incorporate the materials during science lessons/discussions to spark the student's interest then place the item in the science area for them to explore later. The possibilities are endless with the materials below!
