My Project

The items I am requesting will make a difference in my students learning because they will help them learn how to deal with their emotions. The books that are included in my project will be placed in the calm corner of the classroom. When a scholar needs to take a break they may go to the calm corner to read a book and or to just relax and regroup. The Cricut will be used to help with the decor in the classroom. This will help make the classroom beautiful so that the scholars are comfortable. The money is to teach the scholars how to count money. I will also use the money in the classroom to pay the scholars for doing their jobs they are assigned to do in the class.
