My Project

The use of STEM-building activities will be used to promote soft beginnings in our students' mornings as they begin their day of learning. As we use those students will be able to adapt and learn throughout the year about different concepts while also being able to learn with their peers.

I have found that students love to read any chance they do especially in the younger ages.

Building my classroom library is one of my top priorities right now. This will allow my students to be able to pick the books that they wish to read based on their interests. While also providing a range of levels of books for my students is also important.
