My Project

This classroom is preparing for a year of firsts for everyone! As a first-year teacher planning for students’ first time in fourth grade, I want to make a memorable impression this year.

We will be focusing on science and social studies projects all year long.

Some of our topics will include animal and plant cycle of life, weather, genetics, traits to identify ourselves, geography, and more!

The items on the list will help set up the environment for students and equip them with the supplies they need to be successful and ready to learn each day.

Ms. Brown Briarmeadow Charter School Grades 3-5
