Help me give my students science materials, books, art supplies and a Scholastic News subscription to give them engaging and hands on learning experiences.
I teach second-grade students with a variety of interests, abilities and goals. We are part of a large school and strive to meet each child’s diverse needs. My students are enthusiastic children who come to school each day eager to learn. They love hands-on learning that allows them to be actively engaged in the content that is being taught.
My second graders are creative, have a thirst for knowledge and enjoy learning in a variety of ways.
We use many different learning strategies to help each child reach his or her full potential every day.
My Project
The materials in this project will provide my students with hands-on and engaging activities that are fun and exciting. As we head into spring, during this challenging time, I want to give my students productive learning activities for them to look forward to. The science and STEM materials and books in this project meet our state standards as we dive into our Lifecycles science unit this spring including the aquaponics tank, lady bug lifecycle habitat, and art supplies. This is something my students look forward to each year. The Scholastic News subscription will give my students quality nonfiction text to read about current events in an age appropriate way to help them better understand what is going on in the world around them. Having a printer in the classroom will allow students to print information and assignments since many do not have access to printers at home. Storage carts will provide an organized way to store materials for each day's work. Headphones will be useful to students while working on their own devices to help them focus and to disturb those around them. The games will be used for indoor recess time to provide students with wholesome, yet fun, activities that promote turn taking, and working together with others.
