My students are a fun and active group of second graders in San Ramon, CA. I have 23 students all unique in their learning styles and modalities. All students need multiple tools to keep them motivated and focused during this critical year of learning. One of the ways to help students engage in learning is by providing opportunities for children to engage with different learning modalities.
My students are active and enthusiastic learners who are becoming more independent and responsible.
Providing ample opportunities for students to take ownership of their learning is one of my goals in my classroom.
My Project
According to Edutopia.com, Involvement in the arts is associated with gains in math, reading, cognitive ability, critical thinking, and verbal skill. Arts learning can also improve motivation, concentration, confidence, and teamwork.
Ample opportunities for students to express themselves and promote creativity is crucial especially during the early stages of life.
I am asking for oil pastel, and watercolor sets in order for me to be able to incorporate a variety of art activities into my classroom.
STEM is another way to promote critical thinking and to help students enhance creativity. It also instills a passion for innovation. I am asking for STEM building blocks and kits which especially benefits with learning science, technology, engineering, and math, and help build problem solving skills which is needed in all areas of life.
