My students attend a school that houses kindergarten through 5th grade. I currently have 26 kiddos in my classroom that love to learn!
Kindergarten students are very accepting of one another, but they do notice differences in one another and how they learn!
My students are very curious about their world around them and love to learn through hands-on materials, especially during our Morning Work Bins. I have found through my years of teaching that each child can potentially have a different way of learning.
My Morning Works Bins are designed around our state curriculum, but are all hands on activities, so that I can differentiate my teaching to accommodate the different learning styles.
My Project
My students are in love with our Morning Work Bins! I have created diverse Morning Work Bins that are themed for each month of the year, to accommodate the different learning styles in my classroom! At the beginning of the year, we talk about how kids learn differently, and how it's okay for someone to not learn the same way as you do. With this in mind, my Morning Work Bins allow me to teach my students in different ways, and help them to see that learning differently is okay!
Our Morning Work Bins are filled with hands-on materials that my students can manipulate to increase their learning, but we need more materials!
For this reason, I need to keep our Morning Work Bins interesting and filled with new materials. With the addition of Play-Doh, dry erase markers, contact paper, glue sticks, and Wikki Stix, I can start to incorporate work bins my students have not seen before.
My students will be able to practice identifying letters, identifying the sounds that letters make, increase their fine motor skills by manipulating Wikki Stixs, and they can do several counting and addition activities with the Play-Doh! Our possibilities are endless!
