My Project

Bare walls are boring. My students need classroom walls filled with helpful information and inspiration. I have noticed that not all of my students keep up with a notebook or take the needed notes. My desire for my students is to be more independent learners and not rely on me as their only source of information. Therefore, using the power of observation and finding the needed information and inspiration on the walls will move my students to being more independent .

My students will also learn geometric concepts and build community via modular origami.
