My Project

I would like to have my students ready for school in August. One way that I can do this is by welcoming my students back in August with the necessary classroom supplies they they will use daily in their learning.

Having classroom supplies for every student is vital in helping my students achieve mastery of their learning.

In addition, we are implementing a new program called WIlson Learning - Fundations. This program uses alphabet standard sound cards. By having the top loaders and magnet strip supplies, I will be able to keep all these A to Z cards, vowel suffix cards, and consonant suffix cards in excellent condition while teaching the lessons and displaying these cards on the board throughout the year. Next, pencils are always a must with our writing. Also, the stickers will placed on the students' work, as a way to show them that I am proud of their hard work. In addition, having the book bags will be a great way to keep the students' headphones organized and ready to use for their computer lessons. These name plates, pocket chart, and other supplies will help me ready the classroom for the return of my students in August.
