My Project

This year I’m moving down to first grade . Teaching first grade involves using a lot of hands on materials. For example the laminating sheets and sheet protectors allow these materials to survive the entire school year. The gift card from the TPT will give me access to printable hands on resources to use in reading and math.

The wobble stools are a flexible seating option that allows students to sit at their desks or tables while still allowing some movement.

These will be extremely beneficial for students who just need to get the wiggles out.

When using technology students need sturdy headphones that help them stay focused on their individual lessons.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
