My Project

My amazing Kindergarteners love hands on experiences. They are ready to dive into STEM projects. They will be using the Magna Tiles, Picasso Tiles, and building blocks to explore Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. My class is full of inquisitive, smart, curious students. They are like sponges ready to absorb the world around them, using these fun items.

Our class will be learning shape recognition, patterns, teamwork, fine motor skills, and cooperation with the use of these manipulatives.

We will also love using the butterfly kit to explore the lifecycle of butterflies. Kindergarteners are amazed when they actually witness the wonder of this metamorphosis. We love Science!

Thank you for supporting my DonorsChoose Magnetic Minds!
