My Project

The year is slowly coming to an end, but that doesn't stop us from using up our resources!

We need a bunch of random classroom items!

We had a craft the other day and we noticed all our rubber bands were dry rotted, so that wasn't fun. We ran out of our white chalk markers. We ran out of balloons. We ran out of magnetic tape which helps keep all of our visuals and supports up on our board for easy access.

Most importantly, our iPad clamps broke. This was sad for us, but a natural thing, as over the years those things experience wear and tear. We need these for our students who don't manipulate an iPad due to a lack of fine motor skills or physical ability. These clamps allow them to watch & engage in activities with a simple clamp to the desk! These are also used to clamp books/activities to their desk as well!
