My Project

As the summer comes to an end, I am planning ahead and getting ready for the start of the school year. I am looking to start the year off strong with new materials and snacks for my students.

The new classroom bins will help support my classroom with new, fun, classroom library look.

The cleaning materials will help keep my classroom clean.

The sensory ear muffs will help my students throughout the day. Different noises and sounds can affect students in different ways. By providing ear muffs this will help block out the loud noises.

I would love for my year to start off strong and provide my students with materials to thrive in the classroom learning environment. My students all love learning and I want to provide them with the materials to succeed.
