My students love learning and interacting with one another. These materials will help with their literacy skills, support language development and create a sense of autonomy and belonging in our classroom. I will be able to pull small groups and work on specific phonics skills with the phonics tiles and magnetic letters. The metal trays will be used for easy access to the magnetic letters. Students will be able to analyze the sounds by looking at the movement of their mouths with the plastic mirrors. These engaging materials will make literacy more interactive and fun for all!
Help me develop student's literacy, problem solving and social skills through dramatic play!
The wooden kitchen, science kit, play vet and teacher chart for dramatic play in Big World will allow students to explore their interests and during Explorer Workshop. These materials will give students to make real-world connections through their role-play while learning social skills and problem solving skills. Students will have an opportunity to find their voices and build their vocabulary as well through play-based learning. The collaboration and language development through dramatic play will benefit all my students, especially students who are emerging bilinguals.
The sand table for Small World will give students the opportunity to tell and retell stories about the science we have done in class. For example, the sand table could act as a lake where beavers build their lodges and dams. Students then can bring in real-life problems of flooding and pollution and collaborate on how they could solve the problem. There are so many possibilities!
