My Project

Our school uses what we call a "house" system (think Harry Potter style but with different names). Our kids absoutely LOVE being a part of their house and all of the special meanings behind its name, culture, etc. My team has really taken on the love for this house system and are even incorporating it into our day to day routines and organization. Having folders in the color of their house to help keep them organized will make learning to organize more fun and engaging. Along with that, an assortment of colored markers to match all 8 houses are needed to making decorating with house colors more vibrant and exciting. Of course, fidgets are a perfect token for students to earn through house challenges or purchase from our class store with their class money. They will LOVE all of these goodies!
