My Project

My Kindernauts will be excited to enter a classroom where they can experience hands-on learning through play, imagination, and exploration. Imagine a space where students are encouraged to ignite their creativity, spark inquiry, and think critically.

The Math and Science materials from this project will provide my students with ample opportunity to strengthen their math and science skills in a developmentally appropriate way.

In addition, the books will introduce students to the wonderful world of Physical Science, and the Learning Resources and hand2mind materials will be great tools to use during center time and tying in cross-curricular activities.
