My students get so excited when we are learning new concepts in science and by adding science-related STEM materials to our classroom, the students will be able to read about books that interest them such as robotics and animal habitats. Our classroom library is outdated and many books were damaged beyond repair over the years. I am working to bring new innovative learning to my students and they LOVE reading and learning about new concepts. Science is their favorite part of the day and I want to continue to make them excited and engaged with new texts and picture books. I am also requesting a $100 Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to use to purchase teaching resources for my classroom. I enhance my learning daily by making purchases from this powerful website to incorporate technology and engagement into our instruction. This website is such a valuable site and I am thrilled to be able to purchase much-needed resources. Seeing the sparkle of excitement in a fifth grader's eye when he gets a new concept is truly a wonder to behold! I can't wait to see how many connections my students are able to make when they go from picture book concepts to hands-on learning. Help me to make this the best year yet!
