My Project

Teaching Transitional Kindergarten, it is very important to help nurture student's sensory needs, and their creativity in the classroom. Being able to give some of my students different materials to use in the classroom would help build their creativity, and learning.

The materials I have requested for my class would help expand their creativity, and learning.

Practicing using sensory, and fine motor skills would not only support their fine motor, and sensory needs, but can also show my students they can use different materials to expand their imagination, and learning.
