My Project

Students often come to school with most of their energy in the morning. I want to give them the best, most warming, comfortable, happy environment, since our classroom is where they spend most of their time!

Morning tubs with collaborative activities are a great way to start a smooth, happy, comfortable morning routine to help start their day in a positive way.

I would love my students to be able to start their day with laughter, fun problem solving, and talking to their friends, in a non stressful but still meaningful way.

Ink would also be incredibly useful to help label items clearly, and even to be able to make more manipulatives and games for them.

I see the morning tubs with easy and clear organized labeled bins, a great way to start this routine.
