My Project

I get to teach 22 amazing TK students 5 days a week. These students always walk in with a huge smiles and eagerness for the day. At the beginning of the year, I wrote a grant for one light table and Magna Tiles. Come to find out, this is one of the most popular areas in our classroom! Due to its popularity, we need one more light table and a few more play items. They can use the colorful blocks to create fun structures or use their scientific mind to observe the colorful rocks.

The students love to go to the light table and explore how light goes through certain objects.

I can't wait to surprise my students with one more table and light toys!
