My Project

I like to have places around the room for the students to use while they are working. During COVID-19, the students lost a lot of time with these interactions and need to practice it again. With the rugs and pillows I am getting, I want my students to feel comfortable in my room where they can feel at home while they are working. I have also included a few graphic novel sets that have to do with historical events. This is to encourage reading again, which is something that was lost during the pandemic. Even if the reading isn't difficult, the material is engaging and it encourages kids to start reading and learning about important times in history.
