Hands-on FUN in 3K!

Funded Dec 10, 2020

My students and I are using the new resources both in person/at the school building and/or remotely/at home. The notebooks are used in person and at home. The students love to showcase their assignments inside of their notebooks. They take pictures and share them with me weekly. Using these notebooks will serve as a keepsake for them to keep and remember their 3K assignments.

When my students first saw the materials they were so excited and wanted to use them ALL immediately. However I reassured them that they all would be used but not all in one day. Now that it is February and ALL of the materials have been shipped to us, the students have had the opportunity to use ALL of the materials. Many of them have been able to travel home with them and they use them as instructed. The ones that stay in the school building are used everyday during centers time.

My students will be using their pattern blocks and as many of their other manipulatives as they would like to build/make a home. February's 3K Unit of Study is Exploration Two: Our Environment: Building. Using their manipulatives will allow them to get their creative juices flowing and I am sure I will get many wonderful creations. I can't wait!”

With gratitude,
