My Project

Students are learning how to be strong leaders with our regular morning meetings. Specific students are given leadership roles during the meeting. These students will lead the meeting with the goal of reaching certain objectives. Such as figuring out how the class community wants to reap CHAMPS points. So far voting and hands on head have been there go to method. As the year progresses our meetings will increase in content so that we can work as a team to figure out how to celebrate winter by creating for others.

This rug will give them a space to have their morning meetings at.

The headphones will be used for computer learning/work when doing i ready math. Some students already have headphones but most do not.
