My Project

My K-2 students love to sing, dance, and play. They are energetic and bright. We currently have one set of play food that I keep at the front of the class. Since I have a room that used to be a lab, I have a set of 6 fixed stations they sit at. I think the kids would love it if they had one set at each station to have for lessons and games. Beyond that, the vocab lessons include animals on the farm, which is what the farm sets would be used for. The students also learn about family, 2 sets of puppets allow me to include aunts/uncles and cousins. I have other things that I use to teach colors, numbers, and greetings.

The books will be a good way to start every class this year and the food, farms, and puppets will add variety to instruction methods.
