My Students
My classroom consists of many different levels of students. I have some students who require enrichment activities to intrigue their interests and curiosities at a higher level and some students who thrive better off of a more hands-on and tactile approach. All of my students become fully engaged when lessons are presented in a kinesthetic approach.
My students all seem to learn best when working together with partners or in small groups.
They teach each other their own learning styles. Lessons that are tied into the standards, presented with a "hook" or "phenomenon" spark their interests and helps them begin the learning. These hands-on tools enhance that learning and help my students retain the information longer.
My Project
This is an excellent lesson to teach my students how to tell directions North, South, East, and West while using compasses in the classroom. The camping vests and gear will go along with our classroom transformation.
If Henry and Mudge can go camping, then so can we!
Having fun while reading and learning is a great way to engage students to want to read more. Our classroom room transformation will allow my students to go on a nature trail and use the tools they need to go on a hike.
The books will help them relate to Henry and Mudge, Llama Llama and Mr. Magee as we go camping indoors! What an exciting and safe way to learn about the outdoors within the safety of our classroom! Help us go exploring!
