My Project

Moving schools and grade levels. Need more supplies to begin the school year. Students need headphones for independent and tech stations in the classroom. I will have students who will be ESL so having thesr headphones are important when translating work from english into their native languages.

Having necessity items like clorox wipes will help keep the classroom a healthy and clean space.

Keeping wipes readily available will ensure we can wipe areas down in the classroom and wipes to help keep their devices clean. The snacks requested will go into our classroom rewards bin. Students will have the option to pick between a snack, stickers or other incentives like homework passes.
