My Students

I am eager to make sure each of my students has everything that they need for the upcoming school year. My class consists of 18 amazing students who are at a variety of levels due to the current pandemic. Because of this, it is important to me for my students to have the necessary supplies and materials, in order to ensure they are getting the best educational experience possible. Since I am fairly new to teaching, I do not have as much as I would like for my students to be able to use while in school. Please help me make my classroom a conducive environment for learning by providing anchor charts and flex chairs. With these items, my students will be able to participate in circle time for morning meetings with our STEM related books and hands-on activities.

My Project

My students will be able to benefit from the STEM books and activities that I am trying to get for them! Kids love learning through hands-on activities, and with the current pandemic, it may be even harder for them to grasp the topics they are taught at school.

Hands-on experiences and anchor charts give them the opportunity to conceptualize their learning and apply what they learned in a variety of different ways!

Being that I am only a second year teacher, I do not have many resources or games for my students just yet and I would like to start to build upon this for my students now and in the future!
