My Project

I will use these materials to create a welcoming environment for my students to learn and grow. The woven rug will help me to engage my students during our morning routine and whole group as we all gather together as one. The chair seat covers will help provide my students with space for their materials and pencils. The LCD writing pads and whiteboards will help me to differentiate activities in the writing center in a fun and engaging way. The label maker will help me to organize and label materials for each of my students. The yoga ball chairs will help my students with sensory needs as they may not be able to sit in a traditional chair throughout the day. These materials will help me to engage my students in learning. Through teacher created materials and activities, I will help my learners to make connections with the lesson and the world around them. Using the materials will help me to ensure that my students feel safe and at home in my classroom. I would be greatly appreciative to receive these materials to enhance and enrich the learning experience of the students in my classroom.
