My Students

The majority of my students are in a less than poverty household and

tvs and video games are prevalent in their critical years of learning,

My students need hands-on implementation of learning that will keep them engaged, not only in my classroom but for future classroom learning,

STEM education is usually unheard of in the earliest of learners but I firmly believe that preschool is the age where it should begin, Beginning at this early age allows students the beginning understanding of what early learning fun can encapsulate with STEM projects!

My Project

The majority of my students spend all their home time indoors with electronics via the computer, tablet, television or video games. Parents rarely interact with these children on a physical gross motor level.

Outdoor play is heard like a bad 4 letter word in most homes.

My students are given at least an hour throughout the day to experience gross motor from playground, gym or indoor recess and dancing.

As the weather starts to get colder and accessibility for gross physical play is limited, the mats and wedges can help our students get the vestibular play they need. We can place these mats in the hallway or in an empty room.
