My Project

Students will take ownership of their learning when given the opportunity. Providing helpful materials will take more stress off of the students so they may apply that energy to their very own work. I have added one more station in my classroom where students can plug in their computers and work, but I have only one office chair. One station is only being presently used. The materials in the project will complete the stations so it will be the same at both. My students will use the station and materials to complete their assigned projects. The goal is to provide a place where the students will have what they need to finalize their work away from the group. Providing materials and stations in the class is something small, but may have a huge impact on the students.
