My Project

At the beginning of the year, we need to build a classroom community that will help my students feel confident and excited about the things we are going to learn together. These supplies are just the ticket.

My students need the opportunity to learn through multiple modalities.

With a variety of materials, like LEGOs, magnets and games we will be able to expand on the learning that we do in class and deepen their thinking. I'm also requesting headphones and iPad chargers so that my students can focus on their independent and teamwork activities. Time spent working on collaborative projects is important to our collective experiences.

The STEM activities and the headphones (and the snacks) will bring my students so much joy. It's great for practicing our teamwork, small motor movement, patience, and persistence. Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity!
