My Project

This year, we will be starting with a BANG! I would like to begin with a theme. Since my student are such bright stars, we will start with the Space theme because we are "OUT OF THIS WORLD". We will start with the affirmation station. A mirror on our wall that has affirmation words around them (space-themed). "We are smart, we are strong, we can do anything..." These affirmations will be said every day before the speech class because my darlings are all of the above! Then the students will enter a space speech classroom, decorated and beautiful. We will read about outer space and play with outer space toys.
