My Project

Let's get ready for 2nd grade. I am new to 2nd this year and giving students more independence with more options for sitting, game choices, and working on activities on their own. These materials will help you get ready. The new seat choices will be great for those who want to work independently away from the group. The wipe-off paddles will help make learning fun through games. The math board will give students an independent job. I am excited to start a new grade and look forward to seeing my students grow.
