Help me give my students hands-on learning experiences that provide opportunities to experiment with trial and error, creativity, and engage them in activities that promote critical thinking and problem solving. This includes a light table and other items.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Clark's classroom raised $700

My Students
Our Pre-K Scholars are bright, engaged, and excited little learners. They love to explore the world around them and experience new ways to learn every day. They may be the youngest learners in the building, but they tackle challenges head on and love to explore new hands-on ways to discover the world around them.
My Project
Creativity is a huge part of the Pre-K curriculum and hands-on learning opportunities give a child chances to flex their creative muscles.
In my classroom, I believe in bringing project-based learning and hands-on experiences to the students to engage them with the materials and concepts.
This project will enable me to add a hands-on learning option to reinforce concepts across all of our curriculum, in addition to laying the foundation for STEAM and STEM learning.
The goal is to provide authentic learning experiences for our youngest scholars, while building high-level connections to the world around them. The light table will be incorporated in whole group, small group, and during independent center time to help expand on math, STEM, and fine motor skills, as well as fostering the natural creativity of our Pre-K Scholars. The ability to use a varied number of manipulatives and sensory materials will help students explore ideas and facilitate high-level connections for young learners. Those connections are incredibly empowering, because it shows students that they can use that new knowledge to create something - a physical embodiment of what they’ve learned that they can proudly showcase.
