My Students

My third graders are American Next Generation Scholars! They are intelligent, confident, strong and caring. Although, nearly all students from low‑income households (within all these obligations) is may seem daunting, but they are taught school is a rewards and worth it, especially when you have Ms. Ehsan guiding you along the way.

My Project

Having the right supplies in my classroom will make management easier. It will ensure my children are physically and emotionally safe, and it can make them feel more cared for during the time they spend in school.

Classic Birch Tabletop Communication Center is a perfect for announcements, classroom schedules, parent communication and more, our handy tabletop center will give my students easy access to important information!

Giant Classroom Timer and Multiplication Machine, will assist my students and I in keeping track of the time during quizzes, tests, classroom activities, and even playtime or recess.

Jumbo Double-Sided Magnetic Money and Reusable Write Wipe Pocket - Set of 10 will helps support counting, identification and lessons in making change. Dry erase pockets are also perfect for guided reading, especially for graphic organizers and read-and-respond activities. My favorite way to use them during guided reading is for annotating text, identifying sight words and punctuation, locating key details and looking for chunks in words.

Classroom Supplies Organization Chart will allows my students to retrieve them quickly, which helps to decrease unwanted behavior. Proper room arrangement provides predictably, which is essential for students because students thrive when they are in a comfortable learning environment.

All these materials make a difference in my students' learning, I believe the physical arrangement of the classroom is set up to maximize teacher-student interactions while minimizing distractions.
