My Project

I will use the whiteboard easel so the students can stand up to help with focus as they solve math problems with a partner. The students can also walk around to see the work of their peers.

Along with cooperative problem solving I would like to have items to use as fidgets for students who need them as well as classroom rewards.

My class loves working hard to earn our school wide bucks and love to trade them in for a trip to the treasure box!

I hope to have items to hep with problem solving and motivation. Thanks for your support.
