My Project

One item my class needs is privacy folders. For example, during a test, they will have privacy when testing and will not be exposed for what they know or do not know. This allows great privacy and allows students to feel sage to work without someone looking at their work.

Creative builders creates creative thinkers.

Therefore, the building stem blocks are need to help student become creative building. This will allows students to learn to problem solve. It is very important that students have hands on items to manipulate so the math game is perfect for learning independently as well as with a partner.
