As my students adjust to COVID and the new regulations, seeing the familiar math, history, and language wall charts will allow my students to have some comfort in this school year. During math time we will be able to reference the multiplication chart or use the six-sided dice to build an understanding of how numbers are related. The history Hemispheres Blue Ocean Series charts will allow the students to see the key components in a map. They will be able to look at the maps and see the different contents and states that make up the world. Since the students have been out of a classroom for a year and a half, students will also be able to reference the wall charts. If there are any hesitation or questions with the material we can come together on the Home Dynamix area rug and discuss any issues that have arisen. The rug will provide a comfortable place for the students to come together. While the Computer Desk Chair will allow me to have a seat to sit while on the rug or at my desk. Students will also use the rug to find a safe space in the reading corner. The Midea Compact Refrigerator will allow my students to feel secure knowing that they will be able to eat if they need to. It will allow me to keep snacks for students who have forgotten lunch or breakfast. Knowing that I will be able to provide the resources the students need to thrive in the classroom provides me comfort.
