My Project

I have picked some things to provide and prepare hands-on experiences for the children in my classroom. My students love learning through activities and experiences in class.

These activities help them to work in groups and work strategically through planning and then discussing their plans.

I would love to use the safety glasses to teach them about using safety equipment. I would use the poster set to help to decorate the classroom. My kids love growing crystals and it is a favorite activity that I love doing with them in my classroom.
