My Project

My students have learned how to put their classwork in organized sections. They like knowing that there is a place for everything. They even create new space for new projects.

I will create space for them to be able to go to when they want to preview previous lessons, specifically reteach lessons.

Their classroom is full of information and it is important that they know where to find specific information. It is important for them to be able to show a visitor to their classroom where to find vital information.
