My students will use the Cricut machine and supplies to create reference sheets and work to be included in their interactive math and science notebooks. The pillows will allow for relaxing time in the library engaging in essential independent reading of science text. My students will use the whiteboards daily to quickly show their level of understanding in math and science. Students will also use the whiteboards when working in groups to show their group efforts. The additional art supplies and storage materials will allow for students to demonstrate their creativity during lessons and in their interactive notebooks. An organized classroom will allow for smooth transition from one activity to the next.
