I love getting students excited to learn. I do that in several ways, but creating hands-on STEAM centers is the most effective way for me to get students innovating, problem solving, collaborating and creating. Through engaging and fun learning centers students ask and answer questions, investigate, build, problem solve and work together. The OSMO kit uses the Kindle to incorporate engineering, technology and even art to make learning math SO MUCH FUN! Students use the Kindle camera to solve math problems, build geometric shapes, compute fractions and even build words in self-correcting centers. By checking their own answers students feel a sense of ownership over their learning! I use learning centers every day (in the morning, for ela and for math) so students take ownership of their learning as they move independently through a variety of engaging activities. I like to switch student learning centers often, so that students are always excited to visit the centers. I love seeing students' faces as they visit a center for the first time. It is completely worth all the effort that goes into creating each center. I also love creating cross-curricular centers. The items in this project reinforce our class mindset that learning happens everywhere. With these items students learn through play! Through play students strengthen fine motor skills, develop important social skills and learn. I really try to weave engaging and diverse literature into our centers, as well. I want all my students to feel represented by the literature we read and I want all my students to be able to play with materials they most likely do not have access to at home. The items on this list help me weave technology, art, engineering and math into our stories. This makes learning so much more fun and meaningful for my students!
