My Project

Kindergartners learn routine, responsibility, and independence by managing their own materials. My students are energetic, rambunctious, fun loving five year olds who come to school to learn!

Students will independently retrieve homework and necessary communication home from their mailbox.

Each student will have a mail slot where they will be able to retrieve their homework and completed work to take home to their parents.

This will give my students responsibility and give them some independence.

This messaging center will also help with organizing the daily communication that goes home with the students.
