My Project

Returning from winter break can be like a fresh start to school all over again. There is tough work ahead to finish the school year successfully while keeping a level of enthusiasm and engagement.

As we enter the second half of the school year, our classroom could use some replacement materials and items to revitalize our curiosity and critical thinking skills.

This project will provide headphones to replace ones that have been broken/lost in the first half of the year. Games and books are items students have requested if we could get the funds. If students are asking for books, I want to get them in my class library and into their hands. Please help me encourage their desire to learn new skills like the game of chess as an addition to our classroom.
