My Project

My students love to be engaged through play and exploration. We enjoy starting our day with fine motor activities to help ease us into our learning. These items will be used during our Morning Tub time after students get unpacked and settled for the day. The storage tubs will be placed in our cabinets and allow us to keep our materials organized for easy access. I have included a variety of fine motor activities to help keep my students' interest. These will be rotated throughout the year. A few of our Morning Tub activities purchased earlier this year involve printing. To make those papers last longer, I have also included laminating film. I can't wait to see the look on my students' faces when they see new choices in the classroom during Morning Tub time!
