My Project

After doing some thinking, the third grade team at needs some more supplies!

These supplies will help with math centers, classroom management, students emotional regulation, and making learning fun!

We will be using the timers, the dry erase pockets, and the caddies in our math centers, along with the paper organizer to keep our worksheets and math fluency papers organized.

We're excited to be implementing a "calm down" corner, which is where we will use the "little spot" emotion toys.

Also, we've added some things for our prize boxes for our mystery students!
