This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
My 2nd graders are an energetic bunch of scholars who are excited to socialize and work together to start the day off on a positive note.
These STEM items will be used to bring my scholars together each morning, after they finish up breakfast, starting the day off in a relaxing fashion.
Scholars will have the chance to build using the Magna Tiles , work on their cutting skills, and practice addition and subtraction with a hands-on number chart. The Tilt Turn Liquid Sensory Windows will help students decompress, easing into each day.
These activities will allow time for the teacher to go around and check in on each child, being sure they are set up for success!
