Crayons are a part of our daily learning in 1st grade. Using crayons helps students to express their learning and keep them invested in their work. Seeing the excitement on my students faces when I put a new box of 8 crayons in their caddy's could make anyone smile. Their excitement to have endless sharp crayons will far exceed the new box of basic colored crayons. I can also not wait to see the excitement of the new classroom job that this will create "Crayon Sharpener". I am sure that this will be a very coveted job. The bins that my students keep their current crayons and other supplies in are very used and need replacing! Alphabet magnets and alphabet stamps will be used in during our word work time to help students become stronger in their ability to create words on their own. Lastly, "Giraffes Can't Dance" will be a great read aloud for my students to remember to strive for the things they want and go for their dreams!
