As a brand new ESL teacher with 50+ students, I want to be sure I can help them keep their work organized so they can see their progress. I am building my classroom from the ground up. I want my students to learn to be responsible for their work and keep it organized. These materials will help me help them! I also know that my work is about helping these students to feel valued in this school community. Encouraging them with stickers and birthday cards will show them how much they mean to me. It's important to keep them safe as they are too young to be vaccinated, so I want to use the most effective face masks I can get.
