My Project

My students are a very diverse group of learners. They love engaging in hands-on science activities in the middle school classroom. These magnets will help students grasp the concepts relating to magnets and polarity. By providing students with the tools they need (magnets), they can actively engage in Science . Students require a variety of magnets to manipulate and not just read about it. We work daily to build our knowledge of science and the world around us. I not only want to build connections with my students, but develop their curiosity about Science and the world around them, encouraging a life-long love of learning. These materials will help to facilitate science classes for years to come!
