My students complete much of their work in small groups at tables. The new chairs will provide enough, unbroken, seating for all of the students in the class. The chairs will be grouped by color to provide an easy visual for the students to know where to go next when we are rotating through centers. The bean bag chairs will provide a comfortable spot for students to safely calm down when they are feeling anxious or upset. "The more that you read, the more things you will know."-Dr. Seuss The double sided easel will be a great place for students to gather around and listen to big books, sing songs while looking at a flip chart hung on the easel, or complete whole group lessons on the rug. The road rug and various wall decals will be a great addition to our play/social centers area of our classroom. They will be a great way to make the classroom more engaging for the students. The aromatherapy diffuser will be used to help provide a calm learning environment. The various other supplies such as; glue sticks, paints, aprons, dry erase boards and markers will be items that are used daily to help in the learning process. The students will use many of these materials to complete creative, hands on learning experiences.
