My Project

My students try hard to do their best. They do have a hard time of that sometimes. The area where they live is a low income area and not always a easy place to get what they need. The folders will help them learn to organize their lives at school. The headphones will let them do lessons on the device without disturbing others. The treasure box and mini toys will give them confidence that they are doing a good job at their lessons and behavior. The decorations and things will provide a cheerful environment.
