My name is Kelly Delisio and I am a third year Early
Childhood Education student at the University of Dayton. As part of my clinical experience, I have been placed in Miss Mandys classroom, where I am on Friday mornings from 9:00-11:30. I love being in her classroom and I have already learned so much from both the teachers and the children! As part of my clinical experience, I will be engaging in a mini science investigation with the children. The topic that I have chosen for my investigation is Flowers, and I will primarily be focusing on the parts/structure of flowers and the growth cycle of flowers. I will plan and implement an introductory experience on the topic, followed by two lessons. I plan on using authentic materials and hands-on experiences to deepen the childrens understanding of flowers. I look forward to working with your children on this learning experience! Sincerely, Kelly Delisio
