My Project

First graders are the best. We work hard and love harder. This year I am moving to a new classroom smaller classroom with lots of bright fluorescent lights. With a smaller room, I am trying to get creative in not needing a rolling easel. The magnetic shelves will help with holding big books and other items on the whiteboard without having to use an easel. The light covers will help dim down the fluorescent lights that often give myself and students headaches during the day. It will also give it a move home feel for students.
