My Project

The items in this project are all of our third grade wish list items! My hope is that we can add these many items to the classroom engage in learning and keep up motivation! The wand in this project will be used to engage students and keep their attention during all subject areas. The pens and markers will be added to my student helper table. The picture frames will be used to frame student photos and hang them outside our classroom. Finally, the candy will be added to my classroom economy prize bin and can be purchased from students using classroom money.

The items project will be used by all students to engage in learning and increase student motivation.

Help make my classroom even more amazing by doting to this project!.
