My Project

The items I am asking for are going to help create learning centers. In these centers students can physically engage in learning math and reading.

Items such as the magnetic wands will work in both math and reading centers, for number and letter building.

The beads will work as a way to help develop fine motor skills, that will in turn help build students ability to hold a pencil and scissors. The items in this list will help create centers that are fun as well as engaging in the curriculum standards for Nevada.
