My Project

What a great year it's been! My students have worked hard and made great strides in their learning abilities and skill development. We have come to the end of the year and after months of hard work, we've got ants in our pants! It's that time of year when students get busier and it's harder to stay focused. Stations like makerspace, stem bins and computer time help to keep students engaged, but it's just so hard when there are wiggles they need to get out! I am asking for some items that I think will really help them finish the year strong!

Having more flexible seating options like balance balls will help students stay engaged in learning while they move around a bit.

The other items like card stock, scissors and laminating sheets are materials we can use to show all the wonderful things we've learned this year through creating art.
