My Project

I am an Early childhood teacher, this year teaching and focusing on students coming from a low income households, that are solely dependent on their amazing school learning experience and I want to be able to provide the young learners an amazing experience. The students are coming from low income families and facing several challenges so the requested would be helpful to make lessons more creative and meaningful experiences.

I am trying to be more creative and hands on and these materials would allow the students to be more engaged and these interesting materials would allow them to discover and engage in meaningful learning and would boost their confidence and excitement about their learning.

The materials would allow my students to be able to engage with one another and these materials will bring a brilliant and powerful engagement into my brand new 3K classroom. The students are learning to engage through hands and be more social so the sensory materials would allow them to revolve and grow emotionally and socially. Thank you for all the help
