My Project

Although I am so sad to say goodbye to my first ever class, I cannot wait to get a head start at gearing up for the next school year for my future students!

These materials will help me make sure that students are stepping into an organized classroom that has everything they could possibly need.

The "magazine" rack will be used to display seasonal read-alouds that I will use to discuss important events and holidays with my students. The containers will be used to organize our library. The whiteboard shelf will be used to display various novel studies that we read throughout the school year. The plastic sleeves will be used for students' multiplication charts and small group activities. The scissors will be used for an assortment of cut-out activities throughout the year. Thank you so much for helping me gear up for the next year!
