Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 18

This rug will last many, many years. The students get so excited to sit on it. We now use it at reading center time. The lifecycle kits helped them learn about lifecycles. They were able to correctly put them together and draw the diagrams into their notebooks. The different slimes and puttys are amazing for those kiddos for reward time Fridays or when they finish a task early. Every group has a bag of crayon rocks and they love using them. Fun items like these make learning fun and engaging. The impact of these items will last for many years and classes. That's why I put 18+.

Original Grant Overview

Goal

My goal is to inspire them to have hands on learning science items where they can use some of their five senses.  

 

What will be done with my students

There are the life cycle kits where they can hold them and draw the diagrams into their science notebooks. I can use them for years to come. The crayon rocks will let them have a unique experience to color and create images in their science notebooks without traditional broken crayons. The thinking putty's will be used for multiple years as hands on labs to describe it's properties.  

 

Benefits to my students

The benefit is that 100% of students will be engaged in learning about science.
