My Project

My students need help with classroom learning. They get bored quickly, and great narration can model what readers should sound like. I want my students to learn to read this year. In order to achieve my goal, I need a rug to use for whole group learning.

They love to learn, but they need high-interest literature to keep them motivated and interested.

Many of my students are full of energy. This brings a huge challenge in teaching them. Help make learning better in our classroom! We would love a small classroom rug to use. Please help us with some incentives for good behavior.

I try to increase their motivation in reading by making learning fun. With creative ideas and fun activities, students begin to make connections between my classroom and real life. The curriculum continues to get harder, and students must have many opportunities for fun. Many materials that students currently use are boring. Help make a classroom a more fun place to be.
