My Project

This project include multiple recourses for our classroom. Included in this project is multiple mathematic games that students can play to boost their math skills. There are many organizational materials that include draw space to keep the students work organized and prepared for them to learn. Our classroom is also in need of printing materials. The students greatly benefit from all printed materials and at times it is helpful to print the materials on colored paper. Lastly, it is extremely important for our classroom to be clean and sanitary. Therefore, I would love a hand held vacuum to keep the classroom clean.
