My Project

Please help me to provide some materials to create a wonderful learning opportunity for my students this coming school year! This list of materials would help me to create a calm down space for my students where they can go to learn about how to regulate their emotions, materials for our morning meeting, some fun games for them to play in centers and learn how to take turns and share, some indoor recess materials, and some materials for me to be able to make every students birthday special! My students and I would be truly grateful.

Ms. Helvey
Grades PreK-2
