This project is to help ease the transition to a new classroom mid-year, provide hands-on learning, and support students' creativity! I would like to foster students' love for learning and creativity by incorporating STEAM bins and a slow start process. Students will be able to come into the classroom, do their morning learning, and then use their creativity to build things with their peers and foster friendships at the same time. This slow start process allows students to ease into the morning and school routine while fostering learning in a creative way.
