My Project

Our students learn best when they are comfortable and have their own materials on their desks. Having more flexible seating will help our students learn comfortably in our meeting area. Having individual dry-erase boards helps our students while working out their math problems. Our current dry erase boards are ancient and stained but our students are motivated to use them. They are excited when it comes time to do math because they get out their whiteboards and markers and get to work.

We need new ink cartridges so we can continue to print fun resources for their learning needs.

Having these additions in our classroom will benefit all of our student's needs.
