My Project

PreK students are all about playing, hands-on activities, and lots of exploration. Singing, playtime, art projects, and read-aloud stories are some favorite parts of their day. They are thoughtful, engaged, and always eager to come to school.

I strive to provide a welcoming environment where my students feel safe, encouraged, and loved as they learn through play.

I am hoping to add to our current Science Station with new materials for my PreK students to explore and experiment with. I would love for my students to be able to grow their own marigold plant, as well as view the roots of a class plant growing in the clear planter.

Students will love viewing the minerals, rocks, fossils, and sea life specimens with our magnifying glasses and sorting them based on their many characteristics. Hands-on science activities are the perfect way to get my students engaged in their own learning. Students love to participate in the experiment themselves!
