My Project

My school does not have a school library, so students rely on our outdated classroom library. These requested books will be checked out to students to read and gain more literacy that was lost from COVID-19. The fidgets will help motivate my students by having something to work towards and then will also allow to help them focus and take brain breaks to improve their mental health throughout the day! Kids struggle after COVID-19 to focus throughout the day and fidget brain breaks have been a huge help in my classroom.
