My Project

The children whom I teach come from lower-income families, families whose first language is not English, and due to our area, school we are isolated in terms of supplies and materials. All of my children deserve the opportunity to explore and expand their experiences, and to know that it is not impossible to learn and grow with various experiences.

I've chosen a variety of materials and equipment such as a the dollhouse( explore families and imagination), magnetic toys( to explore science and how things work, problems solving for the children, puppets( so children can express their emotions through puppetry and imagination).

I've also chose other different manipulatives and toys for children to work on their skills. They will benefit from these learning resources by using them, exploring with them and this will broaden their abilities. The children were learn problems solving, decision making, manipulate objects and broaden their creativity.
