My Project

We are planning for "Back to the Future" 2025-2026 school year. We want to get a handle on our problem-based learning projects, a supply list and center projects. We have requested a lamp and fans for our center group table to use while working on projects. The pens and calendars will help us color code projects by type and make them easy to spot. Planning for the next school makes the year easier to manage and students help play a part. I have some of my students their entire elementary school matriculation. This also helps me from repeating projects that they've already done. Please support funding for our class.
