My Students
Kindergarten is a time of transition and growth. Along with busy minds, students also have busy bodies that need to move in order to stimulate the brain. Each day we work on life skills and expand our learning through hands-on activities and applied learning projects.
We are a community of 75 kindergarten learners in 3 classes who work together to create lasting learning and fun memories.
In the classroom it is important to give students opportunities to discover how they learn best, and have materials for all students to be successful.
My Project
Kindergarten is a year of wonder and discovery. The ability to play and manipulate real materials is vital to explore the world. My kindergarten students will benefit from these materials and will be able to apply and test their thinking. STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) centers are a beloved time of day for my students.
Folk tale, and fairy tale problem solving sets, nonfiction books, create a path magnetic center, and the other STEM tools will provide my students the opportunity to research, apply, and test their thinking about how things work.
These materials will help my students work together to creatively solve problems and gain a better understanding of the world around them. With the addition of these STEM materials, students will have more possibilities and choices when it is STEM time, providing them with ample opportunities to work cooperatively and to creatively solve problems throughout the year.
