My Project

I am in the extremely fortunate position to be teaching the same students as last year, so while that presented me with the chance to ask them what they wanted to see in our classroom, it also posed the problem of making my library stagnant. The books on this list were asked for by my students to keep my library fresh and up to date.

The cleaning materials not only help us keep our spaces clean by allowing us to wipe down seating between usage, but also to teach each other respect for boundaries as some students are still masking and sensitive to the thought of sharing classroom supplies.

The chair socks help us not to disturb the classes around us, as we often move our desks to rearrange the room to reflect our goals.
