My Project

These supplies will allow my students to learn while incorporating many different learning styles.

My students will use whiteboards and markers in many subject areas including Language Arts, Math, and Science.

They will solve math problems, sound out words, and brainstorm ideas for science experiments on their boards. They will use the Magnetic Designers to show their creativity and strengthen fine motor skills. The book boxes will be used to store books from our classroom library in many genres including fiction and non-fiction, Math, and Science. Thank you for providing these meaningful tools to increase learning.
