My Project

Students need opportunities to express themselves through various modes of expression such as painting and crafting.

Art infused instruction also improves math, reading, and language skills in young children.

My students will have the opportunities to be creative while exploring and building upon math and reading concepts. We will use the letter beads to explore words and phonics patterns. We will use the gems to reinforce counting and pattering through meaningful and engaging learning experiences. My students will have opportunities to explore number sense through a creative and engaging experiences.
