My Project

Because students were at home for so long, they have come back to school not able to read on grade level or excited to read at all. They are also not used to being in school and struggle to focus. I aim to allow my students to move around as much as possible to aid in their learning and these stool will allow them to do that. These materials will help get my student excited to read and allow them to focus on learning. I really hope that you feel encourage to help my students take back their love for learning!
