My Project

Mostly students in my 1st grade are still practicing/learning how to write and expanding their vocabulary. My goal is by using the special materials, it will give them confidence to continue practicing writing and eventually to love doing it.

My students are adventurous and love to explore new things.

In my class besides learning/practicing how to write, they also learn how to tell what the weather for the day is, they learn the different temperature and what we can do in a specific weather.

Sensory toys are also a big help in my class to help them self-regulate if their day seems to be challenging.
