My kinders are eager to learn and love being at school everyday! My students are at that fun, loving age where they benefit so much from hands on learning. My kinders come from a rural, low socioeconomic community in Kansas.
STEM activities have not only helped engage my students, but have really encouraged problem solving skills in my classroom.
With technology playing a huge role in children's lives today, we try to incorporate this technology into our classroom lessons to help motivate and make learning fun. We also try to incorporate as much peer interaction as possible so our students can improve their social skills as well.
My Project
The Puzzlets will be a great motivator for my students to work cooperatively with their peers. The kindergarteners will be able to use the Puzzlets to work on their cooperative learning and problem solving skills. The Puzzlets will allow my students to work together and experience a fun and educational STEM activity in their own classroom!
Over the last few years, our Kindergarten curriculum has grown tremendously when it comes to integrating technology into the classroom.
Having the Puzzlets in our classroom, my Kindergarteners will be able to use updated technology to explore, problem solve, and work together with their peers.
