My Project

My first grade students are so full of energy and need guidance and patience during our centers and small group block of the day. The materials in this project will be used to make simple educational games that are fun and easy to learn. That way, they are able to practice their reading/ math skills while also engaging their social skills with the other students in our class.

My first graders deserve games and centers that allow them to learn, play, and enjoy their friends all at the same time!
