My Project

We are requesting several items to help keep our classroom organized and calm. We are in the process or reinventing our math corner have tiers to organize our math tools will make it easier for students to find the math tools needed. We are also looking to add to our sensory corner. Students use calming jars to sooth them in times of distress. We are asking for flour to aid us in our science experiments. Lastly we are asking for reading trackers for those students who need extra support in keep their place when reading. All of these items will help our students be successful. Thank you in advance for all of your support.
