My Project

Due to covid, my students haven't been able to use hands-on materials in the past school years. Therefore, this year I have implemented Soft Start in our classroom. We do this when we first enter the classroom in the morning. I believe this helps awaken their brains in a creative way. My students love hands-on activities. I think anything with free build such as; Brain Flakes, Picasso Tiles, Magnetic Building Sticks, and other STEM materials are always a hit with the students. Play-doh is always a favorite that needs to be replaced frequently. Additionally, I have chosen some popular books to partner read and art supplies to reach my students who like a quiet start to their morning. I have also included organizational boxes to store all of their Soft Start materials for easy and convenient access.

I believe the resources I have chosen, with my students in mind, will be a great engaging way start to our day.

I can't wait to see all the creative things they will be able to unlock within themselves. My hope is that their morning Soft Start will give them a creative mindset that will stick with them throughout the day.
