My Project

This project will provide my intensive learning support students with access to science learning materials. They have learning needs that a general education classroom cannot provide and they will get in an intensive learning support classroom. This classroom provides learning on students' levels, but they still need access to science curriculum for their grade level.

The chain reaction kit, machines activity tub, marbles lab, design kit, and other materials requested will teach them about the scientific theory, coding, engineering and architecture.

A coding kit was selected to teach students about how video games are created. Students will also learn about building machines and buildings. This will help them further learn about the world around them. Their learning differences will no longer hold them back with hands on learning from these science exploration kits.
