My Project

Students across the state and world have been affected by covid. Covid has caused stress and educational gaps. These resources will help students be able to learn, grow, and express themselves. The headphones will make for a quiet learning environment. The shredder will help keep students' information private. The science experiments with crystals, terrariums, rocks, and hydroponics kits will challenge students' minds with STEM. The Science papers will be a perfect additional resource for student learning. The various papers, boarders, sharpeners, and staplers will help make and display students' art projects. Art projects help students express themselves and their emotions during this hard time. The calming tubes will further help students as they work to calm themselves.
