I love to spark the interest of my students! My class cannot be fully successful by only listening to the teacher! I am asking for some stem activities, listening center, and math games. My students enjoy being in charge of their own learning. Each item I'm asking for will be used to help my students work on thinking within and beyond their ability. These items will be strategically placed around my classroom for students to work on areas that they enjoy, or areas that they chose to strengthen, based on conferences with the teacher. My class enjoys feeling like they are in charge of their learning, They may be small in size, but they enjoy showing leadership and values. A listening center can help my readers who may not be that strong "Yet". A Listening center can help them still work on different reading skills being taught in the classroom, without the frustration of reading the book themselves. If you choose to donate to our project you will be helping my students be successful!
