My Project

The chair pockets will help them to organize the different materials that they need throughout the day. Having them on the back of their chair makes it easily accessible.

Crayons- the kids are constantly creating and making things during their time in the classroom.

The love to draw and make new things.

Objective boards- These will help the children know what they will be learning for the day. They can look up to them to see what they will be learning in each subject.

Writing board: This will help benefit the children as I model writing for the day. They will have a nice big board to look at when they go to write independently.

My goals for this project is to help create more of a classroom environment, where the children feel like they can succeed with the tools provided.

These kids are special and I wish I could provide them with more resources, so they are able to learn and grow with in the classroom. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide some of the bigger resources needed. These kids deserve materials that will truly aid them in growing with their learning.
