My Project
Grow lights, Germ kits, scales, thermometers, magnets and access to a varity of temperatures of water will support student opportunities to follow their natural curiosities as they make sense of the world around them. A variety of supplies will allow them to design investigations and collect data relevant to their topic of study. Students who have opportunities to engage in problem solving and sense making are more prepared for the 21st century skills needed as they get closer to the workfilorce.
Fraction manipulatives will provide students the opportunity to see and compare fractions, an area of math students tend to struggle grasping, especially with the challenge of modeling equal sized parts.
These manipulatives will support student understanding of important concepts such as division, ratios, perecntages and many other concepts they rely on a solid understanding of fractions.
Privacy binders will provide students a place to learn and assess in an area that will decrease anxiety and increase focus. These folders are teacher created and therefore durable and sized appriately while being easy to clean and store as needed.
