My Project

My goal for this project is to provide my students with enriching, hands-on experiences and materials that keep their minds engaged, fostering a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.

These resources will empower them to explore, create, and enjoy the wonders of the world around them.

Chalk encourages artistic expression while developing fine motor skills and spelling practice. Water balloons inspire outdoor play and exploration of scientific concepts like surface tension, as well as keeping us cool. A large tub will give us a place to put our water balloons, making them easily accessible. These resources will be so beneficial for my students to continue to explore outside our classroom!
