My Project

We spend many hours each day in our classroom together. It is our home away from home. I try my best to decorate the bulletin boards, display student work, provide school supplies, and build a sense of community. I want my students to feel comfortable and welcomed in this learning space.

Building an inviting environment that promotes student engagement and collaborative learning will have a lasting impact on my students.

The chart paper, markers, glue, scissors, organizational bins, and other supplies will provide my students with the tools they need to work effectively in collaborative learning centers. These classroom supplies will allow my students to grow in a nurturing, inviting, and safe learning environment.
