My Project

These materials, carpets, and document camera will continue to enhance the engaging and positive learning space that I strive to create. My classroom is a place that my students can feel comfortable to engage in learning and the carpets are one more space to help them partner read, complete work, and share thoughts in classroom discussions. All of these materials have been chosen with my students in mind. They will help facilitate a positive and engaging classroom. Students will be able to choose flexible seating, see demonstrations of peers classwork on the document camera, and engage in art and and science.
