The items such as crayons and highlighters will be used to highlight the main points in various reading materials as well designing authentic projects. The games will be used to increase team-working and problem-solving skills that students will build upon with weekly learning objectives.

The open sign will simulate a classroom as a business in order to maintain "Professionalism" in the classroom. I am hoping to bring the working environment to the classroom for a real-world experience.
