My Project

With your help I hope to provide my students with new leveled books to aid in their reading journey. I hope to read the book Pluto: Not a Planet? Not a Problem with my students during our Space Unit. They loce the other solar system books in this series and this book will help them to understand why Pluto is no considered a planet.

The headphones whill help to replace broken headphones in our classroom, allowing students to participate fully in our online reading and math programs.

The headphones and dividers also help students focus on their own computers and limit distractions from their tablemate's computers.

The moveable number lines will help student visualize adding and subtracting on a numberline with aligns with our current math unit.
