My Project

I am a high energy and engaging teacher and so are my learners. These materials will help to catches the students eyes and helps them to understand historical events that may be difficult to grasp. It will allow them a versatile seating arrange to learn. These items will allow my students to build/use their creative skills to connect their experiences with their learning targets. It is imperative that we have supplies like the clicker, carpet, flag to help validate and create movement while they are learning during a 90 min. block.
