Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Students

Help me give my students a telescope, a model of the Earth, the moon, and sun, and related books to enhance their learning of Earth and Space during the first quarter of science.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Booker's classroom raised $235

My Project

Some of the rising first graders were my kindergartners the first quarter of 2022. I'm anticipating having them and other rising first graders next year.

The materials in this project will help to enhance their learning of Earth and Space during the first quarter.

The telescope will help students to see the moon and stars. The center activity will allow them to engage with the concepts taught, such as why we have night and day. Last, the books will provide extra learning opportunities, as well as support their reading and comprehension.

The rising first graders are an enthusiastic group and these resources will not disappoint them!
