My Project

Covid 19 has taken away some of the students' social skills. This project will help us work together as a school and classroom community. We will be able to read stories together. We will be able to work together to build new things. The kinetic sand activities will help with our sensory needs. It is very soothing for kids to have the sand on their hands. Our students have been through some difficult times with Covid 19 and the recent fires. I am trying to build a classroom environment where everyone feels safe and wecome.
