FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Matthews's classroom raised $352
This project is fully funded
My Project
My students are enthusiastic about learning in new and innovative ways. Their skills vary based on Individual needs. It is my desire to provide many tools and opportunities to enhance their growth. With the addition of precut tissue papers, beads, and pompoms, my students will develop new knowledge to express their perception of learning while strengthening fine and gross motor skills. Bells with ribbons and rainstick sound makers will introduce my students to different types of sound and encourage them to create rhythms and move with intention. I am setting them up with real world experiences.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
