My kindergartners are beginning their schooling experience and they are being introduced to the skills necessary to read, write, solve math equations, BUT most importantly the skills they need to be inquisitive and problem solve independently.
Students in my class are encouraged to ask questions, solve problems in multiple ways, and collaborate with their peers in any and all subjects!
Please help me create the best environment possible to make this happen. Lets allow these students to see the true joy that can come for learning, creating, and exploring!
My Project
As academic expectations change, we must always keep in mind that kindergarten students are still just 5 years old! The Kids Kore Wobble Chair and the Bouncy Bands for chairs will help many of my students move and wiggle while learning throughout the school day.
Many five-year-old students find it difficult to focus or attend to a task while sitting on the rug or in their seat and these tools will help them move their muscles to allow them better attend to the task at hand.
The Wikki Stix will provide a hands-on activity and opportunity when learning in class. Students can build letters, numbers, words and shapes using these Wikki Stix allowing them to learn information with some sensory and tactile input.
Last but not least, the i-Blason Armorbox Kido Light Weight Convertible Stand Cover Case For iPad will allow my students to have more freedom with the learning they do on the class iPads. Our school has iPads for students to use and I would like my students to learn and play through different apps and have the flexibility to move them around the room, take pictures of their structures, and learn and explore with partners throughout the school day.
Thank you for your donation! It will truly enhance my students learning experience!
