Exploration Centers

Help me give my students more choices when it comes to social and emotional center time. My students will benefit from having rotations of centers in which they can explore throughout the year.

My Project

My students are given time each week to be social with their peers inside the classroom. I plan to use these resources along with what the classroom already has to rotate learning materials throughout the school year during out free choice, social emotional building time. This will help keep the students interested in all the materials provided.

Kindergarten students learn best through play and these items will help give students choice while also learning how to share, cooperate, and explore with their peers.

We appreciate your support in helping grow the whole child. We know academics are important and is a huge focus of ours. However, I also believe working together, exploring, trying new things, and just learning to play in a cooperative manner are all important life skills that should be established from an early age.
