Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

This project will help to expand the minds of my PreK students by lighting up their thinking abilities and learning awesome things about light. I will use the light table to introduce and engage my students in activities that they can use to explore and develop their skills in literacy, math, and science, and build their socialization skills as a group. A light table would make such a difference in the kids' learning by allowing them to use their visual senses. The light table can be calming to children while they interact with the glow of the light table. The light table will be added to our center rotation and will be used daily in the classroom.
