My Project

The goal for the materials I am requesting will allow students to begin their day with creativity. I like to have a variety of “brain bin” materials for students in the morning. My class enjoys creating with various materials. The play-doh, magnetic tiles, markers and stencils are all supplies that will help students be creative and enjoy a calm start to the day.

It’s always fun to see how students use their imagination to make fun pictures or build something creative.

I have noticed students arriving and enjoying their time to be creative and doing something they enjoy. I am happy to see my students begin their day using their imagination and sharing with other students their creativity. It makes for a great start to their day!
