My Project

The wobble stools will help the few students in each class who can not sit safely on their stools. They need to wobble to focus on their work. The stools in my classroom tip over easily when students rock. The felt supplies are for a new design and sew a stuffy monster project which ties in with reading and writing. We will read "Where the Wild Things Are" and design our own monsters to sew. The students will write a story about the monster they created. Imagination, fine motor skills, and creative writing will all be the goals for this project.
