My Project

My students are the best! I am a first-year teacher and do not have a lot of variety of activities and materials for small group centers time. With it also being the middle of the year, I feel my students are getting a little bored with the activities they have been doing throughout the year during centers. These books, building pieces, and supplies would help bring some magic back while also still providing so much learning! This would also provide me with enough books and supplies that I can bring new things out each month for them to have during their center time.
