I have requested some fundamentals to get my first classroom set up with some of the basic things I will need as a first year teacher. In my request I have included many math manipulatives that will enable our math time to be hands on, concrete, and interactive. have also requested a rug that will enhance the social/emotional development of my students by supporting our class values. The rug (a bilingual rug) provides a spot for each student, but unlike squares, reminds students that our space is communal. Learning how to be a share space with peers is an important life skill to develop at this age. These clocks, tiles and counters will make our math time exciting and developmentally appropriate. The granting of this request will allow me to start off my year prepared to be the best teacher I can be, and will give me the tools I need with which to do so.
