My Project

The goals of this project would be to encourage positive behaviors and a comfortable learning environment. The beanbag chairs would be a comfy space for reading. The snacks would be helpful as a reward system for good behavior. We are need of updated toys for our classroom and for outdoor recess. A few items needed for the classroom that would help both the teacher and students are organizational items, toner for printing, laminator supplies, and disinfectant wipes to maintain a clean classroom. These will help out our classroom tremendously. Thank you!
