With seat pockets, my students will be able to efficiently store and organize school materials and reduce clutter in our tiny classroom. Learning to be organized and autonomous at a young age is a key life skill. Headphones will help us listen to books in English and Spanish and develop a love of reading. We can take care of books we take home to practice and show off our super reading powers with our sturdy book bags. This home-school connection will strengthen learning at home and promote a love of literacy in two languages. We cannot wait to receive these materials.
