My Project

My students and I have been fortunate enough to loop together from first to second grade. With the loop came a movement to a new room, a much smaller room. The standing teachers desk that I am requesting will open up more space for small group work. Students will also benefit from being able to clearly see my mouth during phonemic awareness/phonics instruction, so that that they may better imitate correct mouth formation.

The ear buds will allow my students the freedom to individually hear their computer lessons clearly without the disruption of hearing the world around them.

This will enhance the lessons that they are engaged in as well as create an environment where they are able to better focus. The ear buds that we are asking for are equipped with small microphones so that the students are able to voice memo their work so that both they and I are able to check progression.
