Soaring in Science

Help me give my students items for the science center. This is one of their favorite centers. Having fossils and specimens for them to explore will support their learning and development in science.

My Project

The science center is one of the favorite centers in the classroom. The children love to explore and experiment. The fossils and specimen will be an added highlight to the center. They will enjoy looking at each of the new items and using them to discover what they can do with them. The animals are large and will be an added experience for them to use and be able to name the different types of animals. They can be used in different centers. These items are great tools to be able to support the growth and development of the children in several different ways; Science and literacy as well as in cognitive growth. There are so many ways the children will be able to use these materials to help them grow. I am so excited to be able to add them to the classroom.
