My Project

My 22 first grade students are a diverse group of learners. They learn best when they can work in partnerships and small groups. Flexible seating options, sensory tools, social-emotional supports, and writing tools are all incredibly important in our classroom environment.

We will use the binders, Frixion pens, Wite-Out, and flexible seating to improve our writing skills and stamina.

We will use the sensory supports to calm big feelings and work on improved communication between all classroom members. These items will greatly support my students' writing, social skills, creativity, and group projects.
