My Project

My students are 3 to 5-year-olds that love playing, dancing, and drawing. I would like to incorporate the USB microscope in science and writing lessons so that we can get a closer look at objects when making observations. Right now we use magnifying glasses to make observations. It would be so neat to be able to plug a microscope into our smartboard and get a closer look on the big screen! The second component of this project is learning through gameplay.

These games will help my students strengthen their turn-taking, problem-solving, and counting skills.

Thank you so much for your support!
