My Project

This year, I am transitioning from special education inclusion to first grade math. I am super excited for this transition, as well as to continue to support special need students from a different perspective this year. Because of the transition, we will need a higher quantity, and different types supplies than my previous classroom.

So this project is to help support that transition and to give these first grade students a great start.

We have a water filter dispenser, a 10 frame set, a storage cabinet and other resources listed, but are also in need of a few items to help support interactive math learning and growth mindset in the classroom. Some materials are included to build student number sense and/or help students "see" the math.

This year we are focused on growth mindset and positive reinforcement. Each day, students who exhibit grit, respect and kindness will get rewarded with a stuffed animal as a badge! We hope this will encourage student to exhibit these positive traits in the classroom.
