My Project

This list might seem random but one common thing is that they will help decrease barriers in students learning environment. Students in my classroom come daily without water bottles and complain of thirst. This causes students to shout out, not want to learn as they are thirsty! The disinfectant wipes will say goodbye to sickness! Although wipes won’t get rid of all sickness, but it sure will minimize them and allow students to be present more! The students I work with are below grade level for reading so the elkonin sound boxes helps differentiate the sounds in words to advance their reading and writing skills. Lastly, sensory barrier will be minimized with the sensory tools. Thank you!
