Making Learning for Young Children Fun, Positive, Engaging and Educational
Help me give my students various stem activities and materials, dramatic play materials, exploratory science activities, multicultural experiences in an early childhood classroom.
My student are between the ages of 3 and 5 years old. It is a self contained special class so each student has an IEP and a classification for special education services. Some of my students are much lower than others. Some have motor, language, cognitive, social, behavior, Autism etc. There are various disabilities in each of my groups of students and many needs.
They each have individual needs, personalities, and so much fun to help learn and grow.
I absolutely adore each and everyone of them.
My Project
These materials will be very beneficial to students in the classroom promoting opportunities for social and emotional learning. The social-emotional learning would include dramatic play ie: dolls, a playhouse to imitate the home environment, and family interactions. The play food, kitchen items ie: broom, mop, pots, and pans will help with social interactions with peers and adults and imitation and imagination. Children will also have opportunities for academic learning because children learn through play ie: colors, shapes, kitchen items, sorting etc. These materials will also allow for exploration including science- dinosaurs, microscope, insects, and bugs exploration. The materials I have requested will take learning to both lower or higher levels of my students who may not have those same opportunities and educational and learning materials in the home. It will provide play opportunities to interact with peers and engage in pretend play and lots of discovery. This will help to enhance their learning and development for the future.
