My Project

I really need to make my classroom more engaging for my second graders! The second graders love Mo Willems books. I have zero in my classroom library. I would love to add Elephant and Piggy and Pigeon books to make students more interested in reading. Also, I want to add more STEM activities in my classroom. I would love students to have the opportunity to build and explore more in the classroom. Both of these resources will help students be more interested in learning and discovering in the classroom. Thank you for your help!
