My Project

This project will help me give my students learning materials this holiday season. The alphabet cards will allow them to practice their letter sounds and recognition. The tissue and Lysol will help me clean the classroom and prepare us for the cold months. The crayons will help my students complete their work/ homework as we use them daily. All items will allow me to keep my class germ-free and gift my students something small that I know they will enjoy.
