My Project

My goal is to help students reach their full potential -academically, socially, and emotionally while increasing their fine and gross motor skills. Kindergarteners learn best through hands-on play. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, students need more time to interact with their peers to increase student talk and problem-solving. The reading materials will give students the chance to use manipulatives to learn while learning with others. The STEM materials will give students the chance to build with magnets and test out the strength of their creations. Students will collaborate to create different magnetic designs and creations. Students will also have the chance to increase their gross motor skills through interactive play. All of these items will help increase student focus and increase student talk and collaboration. Some organizational items will help with the storage of the purchased items. These items will help to engage students while increasing student talk time and meeting their social and academic needs.
