Project Description

Each month, students will participate in engaging lessons designed to capture their attention and keep them fully immersed in learning. I will incorporate room transformations and hands-on activities that align with our ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies standards.

Monthly Highlights Include:

September: STEM team-building challenges and Symbols of Freedom and Citizenship activities

October: Glow-in-the-dark room transformation, spooky STEAM projects, and hands-on science experiments

November: Central idea construction zone transformation and Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade-inspired activities

December: Text feature "surgery" and a Winter Wonderland writing workshop

January: New Year’s goal-setting and reflection activities

February: Minute-to-Win-It challenges and an immersive poetry-themed transformation

March: Basketball Book Madness literacy tournament

April: Gravity investigations and a review carnival

May: Luau-themed room transformation to celebrate and wrap up the year

These monthly experiences will take learning to the next level by combining standards-based instruction with creativity, collaboration, and excitement in the classroom. 

 

Expected Outcomes

These room transformations and lessons will enhance retention of material, create a love of learning, and develop critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving skills in my learners.
