My Project

This project will benefit my students who are starting school for the very first time. The book set will benefit my library center by giving the students multiple options of books to read and look through, the Farmer's Gardening Kit will help my students with sorting colors, the Lakeshore Community Garage set will enhance my block center where children can pretend play and the Plants Magnetic Activity Tin will teach children about the structure of a flower and sorting vegetables and fruits.

My goal for this project is to give my students a fun learning environment for my classroom where they can enhance their fine motor and gross skills. The students in my class are special in their own unique way.

These materials will benefit my students during classroom centers and during small group.
