I have been given the opportunity to teach the grade that is near and dear to my heart! At this age my students come to class so eager to learn. They are like a sponge just soaking it all in. They have a positive disposition and there is nothing more enjoyable than to see their smiling faces as the enter the classroom each morning!
They enjoy being in a classroom where they can explore and learn about their world around them.
They like completing projects and working together to make sure everyone in class understands the concepts and know that there are many teachers in one classroom.
My Project
Many times throughout the year my students have free time to learn and play. They need to have materials they can use during this time to explore and learn.
My students need to be able to develop their mathematical and engineering skills while having fun building challenging activities with the STEM sets from Kaplan.
They even get to test out their design to see if the marble will go smoothly down their tunnel after building it!
These activities will be a great way to encourage creativity and problem-solving skills in my students.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
