My Project

Help give us some fun activities to do this year. This is our last year in elementary school and we know the work will be a challenge, but we want to have some fun! I try to make learning fun, which is why I am asking for a CVC learning game and some magnatiles, so they can use those for math centers.

My class this year is so sweet and kind, and we love building with tiles for Fun Friday and I am shocked at how they worked together to build it.

So here I am, looking to purachse more fun activities to use as an incentive for hard work. I love allowing them to listen to book read aloud udirng independent reading time, so they can enjoy reading. I love reading the book "Our class is Family" and I tell my students I want them to feel that. Thank you for helping me create a little home away from home for them while they are at school! We are graduating and will be using the graduation cap and gown for photos. We always needs snacks to add to our snack closet. I make sure every student has a snack, since our lunch period is so late in the day.
