My Project

Group work is an important part of my class' learning and growth. It is an opportunity for my students to practice their critical thinking and communication skills. While my students are eager to work and interact with their classmates in groups, I wanted to provide them with certain tools that can make group work more seamless and efficient.

The use of portable lap desks and personal clipboards will provide my students the flexibility of learning in different areas of the classroom.

It will also make writing more accessible for them. Having these tools can ultimately elevate their learning and facilitate greater independence, which is an important goal I have as an educator. My students love going on scavenger hunts in the classroom and around the school! Having their own clipboards will make learning on-the-go more feasible and enjoyable.
