My Project

In 1st grade students thrive in small groups. But in order for me to work with small groups, I need the other students to be busy working independently. This project will give our classroom some awesome math and reading tasks that are hands on and engaging. They will keep students busy and learning while I am meeting with other groups! In addition, I have ordered fidgets and prizes for our classroom prize box. The prize box adds great learning incentives and keeps behaviors at bay! I am so excited to get new materials into our room!
