My Project

I would love to add these materials to my classroom to help enhance my students time in school. The magnifiers are child friendly, which means they will be easier and more convenient for their small hands to hold on to. I also appreciate that they have different levels of magnification.

The translucent letters would be a great addition for our light tables.

Having 2 sets would enable more students to use them during choice time. The fox in a box activity set also seems like a fun and engaging way to introduce my students to positional words. It’s also hands on which is so important for my young learners.
