My Project

Please help give my students more hands on learning materials as we 'Spring into Fun!' with our new unit of study on insects. The students in my class are made up of young children ages 3-5 so they are naturally curious about the world around them. We recently started our next unit of study on insects and they are so excited to learn as much as they can about the new topic. They learn best through hands on experiences by using objects and materials that make their learning concrete. The materials in this project are perfect for increasing their knowledge and will definitely make learning more fun along the way!
