My Project

Creating a thriving and positive environment for learning. Students learn visually and thru hands on. The items that I am request can help in both ways. The items that I requested can help set the tone and be very helpful in learning units through out the year. Even though my students are in different school setting, I still want them to be in a classroom that is safe, comfortable and thriving so that they can continue to learn. The models of body parts will allow students to be hands on while learning.
