By supporting my project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, but you will also ultimately help to increase their academic achievement. Students will have multiple opportunities to develop their skills both academically and socially with the materials in my wish list. Moving to a paperless classroom to kick off our mornings. Students will have access to hands-on learning and choice bins where he/she can be engaged academically while working alongside their peers. The Stem Bins will be used during Morning Work where I give students the opportunity to choose what they want to be engaged in, instead of only paper and pencil. I cannot imagine having the opportunity to use all these materials in my room. Through small group, individual play/learning, and collaborative work my students will be actively engaged while learning and meeting all standards for NYS. Thank you for considering donating to my class.
