My Project

During the months of December and January, my students have an opportunity to explore topics outside of our Creative Curriculum.

During the winter season, I want to provide some provocations for my students to explore arctic animals and snow.

My students are going to be so excited to learn about animals such as polar bears, penguins, narwhals and more. Students will be able to build habitats for the animals using the different building materials. Crossing my fingers that we get some real snow to add to our sensory bin this winter season.
