My Project

Next school year the resource class will have a new classroom and it would be great to have it all set up and ready to go. The carpets are great to help reduce noise from the chairs sliding on the linoleum floor. The stools also offers a different seating choice for students who struggle to sit in a regular chair.

Students are engaged when they have an engaging space.

The posters would allow students to be able to see a visual of the alphabet in the classroom. We are always writing and doing activity sheets so having some fresh new pencils are always a great add on to start the school year. The Mancala game and fraction pieces will help with counting skills and as students are moving into learning fractions.
