Learning Can and Should Be Fun!

Help me give my students a rich learning experience and help me to close the learning gap and get them all on grade level with fun activities to encourage learning as well as flexible seating for my students!

My Project

My students are very sweet and eager to learn. Some of them are not on grade level for one reason or another and I would love to help them achieve that success in the classroom so that they can apply those skills outside of the classroom as well. I am a new teacher and would like the ability to furnish items that my students need, want, and can use to help keep them engaged. My philosophy is that all children can learn if given an engaging environment. This will encourage learning. The fishing for words sight word game will encourage my Kindergarten level readers to expand their vocabulary by playing a fun game, and the base 10 magnetic set will help me to keep my students engaged when learning place value.
