My Project

My second graders love to work in centers throughout the day, and they love collaborating with their peers. They are so much more engaged when collaborating in hands-on centers as well. I love their curiosity and their excitement about learning, and I hope to continue to provide that to my students with your help.

These materials will help my special education students to succeed and be their best selves.

The varied literacy and math activities, as well as the TPT gift card, will help my students build their basic literacy and math skills when we do our center rotations, such as addition, counting money, and telling time. The notebooks will give students a chance to write during centers in their own personal notebooks. The headphones will help my students to focus when working on their iPads during centers as well, and the iPad chargers will help charge the iPads when we're not using them.
