My Project
The Rainbow Smileys Classroom Rug will be the heartbeat of our classroom—a warm, welcoming space where students gather each day for morning meetings, story time, and whole group lessons. Each child will have their own designated spot, which encourages a sense of belonging, builds routine, and supports positive classroom behavior.
The dry-erase markers will empower my kindergarteners to share their thinking boldly and clearly.
Whether they’re practicing letters, solving math problems, or drawing to express comprehension, these tools allow for immediate feedback and creativity.
The portable whiteboard brings learning to where my students are. It supports flexible teaching—from small group instruction to student-led activities—and makes it easy to model thinking, encourage participation, and keep students engaged throughout the room.
Educational games will be used during centers and small group rotations to reinforce literacy and math skills in a fun, collaborative way. These games foster problem-solving, teamwork, and academic confidence while making learning feel like play.
Student incentives will celebrate effort, improvement, and kind choices. From stickers to small treasures, these rewards help reinforce our classroom values and build a culture where students feel seen, supported, and proud of their growth.
With your support, we will create a bright, student-centered learning space where joy and learning go hand in hand. Thank you for helping our young learners shine! 🌟
