My Project

My students come to school with a wide array of experiences and exposure, and sometimes it's hard to structure a program to fit all of their needs. One way that we are able to differentiate in our classroom and provide social interactions is through play and free exploration in our STEM area. Students are able to explore, try new things, and interact. They are learning by doing and create some amazing things!

It's important to me that all students who walk through my door feel safe, confident, and able to learn anything.

The materials in this project will help me to replenish consumable items in our STEM area (Astrobright paper and kinetic sand), provide more tools for play (emotion blocks and Stack-A-Rainbow Tree), and help students hear videos that support our learning (a new Bluetooth speaker to replace the 2012 projector speaker).
