My Project

A new school year has begun and I have 20 kindergartners who are ready to embark in their elementary school experience. For a third of my class, this will be their first type of formal education. This is a time of both excitement and apprehension for students and their families. I would like to prepare my classroom to meet the needs these new students.

Warm and welcoming classes need constant up keep.

Pencil sharpeners, manilla folders, pens, dice, and containers will replace old and broken supplies. Bubbles and goodie bags will be part of our ongoing classroom incentives. The Teacher Pay Teacher gift card will aid in ideas that will encourage learning. I look forward to having these items to refresh my classroom.
