My Project

I am new to teaching first grade. I have a wonderful bunch of kids that have many social and educational needs. They need a room where they want to learn by using many tactile approaches. They also need a calming corner where they can learn to self regulate themselves.

Many of these scholars have had a rough teaching past and I want to make sure that this coming year they will blossom!

I want them to love school. They need a calming corner to stay calm and feel safe and self regulate. I would like rocker chairs, a storage cart, fidgets, LEGO, and more. I want to thank you all in advance for any help!
