My Project

In 3rd grade, we focus on Force and Motion, magnetism, life cycles, and weather. There are so many engaging ways to learn about these concepts - and the stellar science items in my cart are going to help my students get their hands and minds working. I’m excited for them to have some shared reading experiences with the texts I’ve asked for, hands-on exploration with the magnets and growing our own plants will be such a cool way to student the life cycle. Nurturing butterflies in our classroom will help us gain knowledge and pose questions for our field experience at our local butterfly pavilion.
