My Project

My students are very eager to learn, and explore all that surrounds them. They are hands on learners who enjoy using manipulatives to immerse themselves in different areas of learning.

The materials in my cart will be used as scaffolds for students to act out their thoughts, ideas and innermost feelings.

They will learn lessons on transportation and lessons that will strengthen their social emotional health.

The train set will allow for conversations on transportation, and discussions on the many different modes of transportation. The multicultural dough set allows for self pride and teaches about ethnic groups other than their own, which enhances social emotional health.
