My Project

My classroom is full of 20 hardworking, determined students. As we continue diving into the school year, my students are eager to learn and collaborate using hands-on resources.

I am hoping to expand our classroom resources for reading, math, and STEM+C so students can stretch their brains and take their learning to the next level.

The alphabet mat and number mat will be a great addition to our center rotations. I also plan to have students use the mats when they are coding their Beebots and Coding Critters. This project also has materials that will allow us to get crafty during holiday activities!

Thank you so much for considering my project!
