My Project

Every year, every class is irreplaceable in its own way. However, each class also teaches us teachers lessons and allows us to learn right along side with them. As we approach the end of this school year, we have been able to observe and also learn about effective classroom management strategies and ways to help improve our classroom environment. This project consist of supplies to help us do so from sanitary products to keep our classroom clean and safe, fidgets and candy as reward system incentives or fidgets to help with the students learning and focus, anchor chart markers to create visual diagrams of each skill and extra supplies so our students are always ready to learn!
