My Project

My Transitional Kindergarteners are curious, creative, and fun! They love to learn about their world and to create and build. Their imaginations are amazing and I love observing all of the projects they come up with. The various building materials in this project will allow them more opportunities to create and build!

With gears, including flower themed gears, and other building materials, their creativity will shine through!

They will also be able to develop their problem solving skills, collaboration skills, and communication skills! All while having fun! Learning through play is the best!
