My Project

Hey! Asking if anyone can help Mrs.R and I organize our classroom due to lack of wall space. We would like to utilize our new bookshelves in our center space to teach both literacy and math to our small groups. We would also be able to move the bookshelves around the classroom which would be great! I am also seeking some extra tools and math manipulatives for our students to make their learning more fluent and fun.

Anything that is helpful to our students learning is greatly appreciated!

Thank you.
