My Project

I would like to give my Pre-K students the chance to explore engineering. With these Build Engineering Centers, the students will have a chance to build using materials appropriate for their age.

I would like to challenge my students to build and problem-solve.

I feel that many of my materials are geared more toward older children and the Pre-K children often become discouraged and give up. These centers are meant for Pre-K and kindergarten students so I think they will be successful and in doing such will encourage them to continue problem-solving and engineering for years to come.
