My Project

My students love when we do something different in the classroom. I am always looking for ways to help them get excited about their school day. I know so many children do not enjoy school. They will love doing their math problems under the stars. I plan to turn the lights out and have the patio lights and lamps on for a calm and different classroom experience. I need tape, scissors, and paperclips to help hang the lights. The students will use post-it notes to work problems on and swap with a partner to check each others work. I want some pens so the students can check each others answers. I need some carts and draws to organize some new math games I bought for my students. I want my students to wake up excited to come to school and learn.
