My Project

I already introduced myself to my students before the school year ended. They were excited and looking forward to second grade. I want my students to feel comfortable and welcomed. I don't want them to want anything that their parents may not be able to provide. Last year was a struggle because we had to borrow supplies from other classrooms. I just want my new students to feel like they have a complete classroom and that everything that they need will be provided for them.

My future students will have scissors and crayons that represent them, and stem activities to make their learning fun.
