My Project

These materials will help to make my classroom warm and inviting for the beginning of the school year next year! My current whiteboard isn't magnetic and the dry erase markers stain because it's so old.

This new whiteboard will help to utilize a whole wall of space where I can hang a classroom calendar, classroom jobs, and anchor charts.

It will help recreate a whole corner of my classroom that wasn't used this year.

The vinyl bulletin board paper will keep our work looking bright all year long. These two materials will go such a long way in my first grade classroom!
