My 5th graders enter class engaged and ready to learn and discover everything. They always get excited when we have experiments, hands-on learning, and experiences that broaden their understanding of science.
Due to the pandemic, my students have missed out on two years of learning through hands-on learning in school.
Being able to give my students these experiences again is bringing back the joy of in school learning!
My Project
The materials and supplies I am requesting for my classroom will help with the excitement of my student's learning. After a couple of years of teaching through the pandemic it has become evident that our students have gaps in their learning in all subjects and with their social and emotional behavior. To bridge the gaps I would use the post it notes everyday with questions of the day. This gives them an opportunity to express themselves in a fun and exciting way. Students are always wanting to add photos of their experiences in class and with the use of the photo printer we will be able to fill the photo board with these photos. The science equipment will be used to advance their understanding of various science concepts. It gives them the opportunities needed for hands on learning through fun and exciting science experiments.
Through the pandemic these students have lost days, weeks, and months of experiencing science in fun and exciting ways.
These supplies will be a great opportunity to fill in the gaps.
