It’s a Big World!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Gwen's classroom raised $593
This project is fully funded
My Project
For the “It’s a Big World” project, students will utilize classroom tools and relate them to real life. Students will use the items to count, learn about money, learn about important people/careers, and use their own creativity to build things they see every day. The new materials can help students navigate diverse social environments, gain hands-on experience and make connections to the world around them. Students will learn life skills, how things work, and most importantly students will have fun learning! Students will retain more information when they are enjoying what they are learning.
This classroom project was brought to life by PNC Grow Up Great®
