My Project
The materials that I am requesting for my students will help to provide a fun and hands-on learning experience about outer space and the world around them.
I plan to use the following materials such as the Fidget Solar System, the Alphabet Shaped Robots, the Space Shuttle Gliders, the Mini Bendable Astronaut Figurines, Wooden Solar System Floor Puzzle, and the Magnetic Blocks during small group instructional time.
During this time, my students are divided into 3 groups and each group will have the opportunity to work on various skills such as sensory motor , fine motor, gross motor, and academic (letter recognition or counting 1:1 correspondence) while incorporating the overall space theme. In addition, these items will also be placed in the play areas for them to utilize and manipulate for further exploration.
The Celestial Little Earth Buddy will be used as a hands on prop, particularly during story time while reading such books as the Earth and I and We've Got the Whole World in our Hands.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
