My Students

I teach preschool students that may have special needs and/or come from disadvantaged houses. My students love to learn through play and hands-on activities! They are young and energetic and excited to be at school. We build connections with kids to build upon their love of school and others.

My Project

My young preschool students are very curious about how things work. These science materials will help them see how things work while they manipulate it themselves and work together with their friends.

Helping my students learn how things work can only be done through hands-on exploration.

With these materials, students will have access to investigate how things work and operate. They will use these items during free play which is a majority of their time spent in preschool. By working with their peers, students can observe changes and build plans to construct their thinking through play.
