Doc It Up Second Grade!

Help me give my students a document camera to see good examples of what the teacher is teaching. Also help me with a calm corner and indoor recess activities so my students can regulate their behavior when needed.

My Project

All of my students love learning. They learn from each other. They would learn so much more if we had a document camera for me to show them examples of our math and other students writing samples. This would bring such understanding to the ones who struggle and need to see the actual learning process taking place instead of hearing it being said or doing it by hand.

Our class is also asking for items to go in our calm down corner.

This will help regulate and reduce behavior in the classroom. We are learning many strategies to help calm our bodies down so that we can be ready to go back to class and learn but these items will really help us to focus on not concentrating on the negative behavior but bring us back to reflect on the positive of ourself, so that we can start over and fresh with learning and getting along with our peers.

Last, we ask for help in getting indoor recess toys to be able to interact with our peers at recess. Having nothing to do at recess is no fun. But if we had activities to play with it would teach us social and interaction skills. Thank you for your time and support.
