My Project

I love how creative my students are and how well they interact with one another. Having more materials for choice time and when they are able to bring their creative ideas to life will enhance their growth socially and academically. For example, with ore puzzles the children will be able to build relationships while incorporating various thinking strategies. Having a sufficient amount of materials for free time and when lessons require art supplies will ensure all the kids are provided with options, engaged, and are intrinsically motivated to perform to their full potential.
