My Project

I love being able to watch my students grow! The transition students make from the start to end of the year is truly amazing. When teachers are able to create a welcoming classroom for students from the start of the year students are more likely to be engaged.

I am working on creating a safe learning environment to meet the needs of all students in my classroom.

It is important to be able to have a classroom that is inviting to all students. The calming canopy and the caddies will help have my students have a calm space to relax. The caddies will encourage organization so that all their materials can be presented to them in a neat way.

Each student is unique and special in their own way.
