My Project

My goal for this project is to adjust our classroom environment to be a more organized and calm space for students to learn and grow. These organizational tools will help set up our classroom for success. I want students to feel a part of a clean, organized, and functional space. The lights, snacks, and positive posters are to help motivated my 3rd grade students during their first year of state testing. My students love working for a whole class reward so the star jar will allow students to visually see how close they are to meeting their goal.
