Solving Puzzles in Kindergarten!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Anna's classroom raised $483
This project is fully funded
My Project
The goal of this project is to provide engaging puzzles to my kindergarten students. My students love working on puzzles, but unfortunately we don't have any in our classroom. We have to borrow puzzles from other teachers and it is the most requested activity in my room. The benefit of working on a puzzle is that it helps increases mental speed and improves visual-spatial reasoning, which are important skills in math.
These educational puzzles will help my students develop fine motor skills, spatial awareness and increase teamwork!
Through these puzzles, my students will learn how to work with other students to complete something. The teamwork skills they develop by working together to solve these puzzles will benefit them for the rest of their schooling and professional career.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
