Connect to Learning With These Hands on Activities

Help me give my students headphones, grab and play games and other hands on resources for reading and math. I also added a variety of books for my class library.

My Project

I have a class of twenty second graders who love to find new ways to engage in learning. These grab-and-go games and activities will help them have engaging and productive centers. I am excited about the opportunity to have different options and resources to help support my student's learning in whatever way they need.

When you donate to my project, you are supporting my students' many learning styles, and the need for differentiated activities to reinforce learning.

I am also in need of a class set of headphones. When each student can have a pair of headphones it promotes the best results in assessments and ensures privacy. I have added a variety of books for my classroom library, and to be read aloud to the class.
