My Project

Our younger generation was hit pretty hard during and after our COVID years. The kiddos that are in first grade now were confined to their home and family during those years. They missed out on the most important years of social emotional development. The materials I have picked for my class will benefit not only their social emotional development but their learning development as well. Help give my students reading bins for organizing, differentiated seating for our different bodies, different reading and math independent center work to help grow each individual brain and grow their love of learning! I want my students to love learning and show them the amazing fun ways your can continue your learning. I want to instill in these amazing first graders that they can be and do whatever they set their minds on!
