My Project

Social Studies is either an experience that sticks with students for how meaningful and engaging it is or it deters them from a lifetime of inquiry because of how boring and under-stimulating it was. In Mrs. Rahman's classroom, learning is meant to be engaging, collaborative, creative, and energizing. The markers will be used to bring color to the classroom and help students bring their work to life! The snacks will be pick-me-ups for those students who are crashing out a few periods before lunch - not everyone has the luxury of eating 3 meals a day and something like that should not hinder students from being inquisitive learners. The storage bins will help create a successful classroom environment where they can access their work easily and take control of their learning. Lastly, students have shown interest in reading small books that are not so text-heavy. It engages them with the content and gets them thinking in a way that standard-based approaches do not. Gifting the books will be valuable to our classroom for a plethora of reasons from engaging and stimulating them, to giving them extension activities when they finish their work early and - my favorite - helping to improve their literacy.
