My Project

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them opportunities for organization and additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The little stools are a great addition to my classroom. They are little enough to move around the room where they would like to sit. These will be extremely beneficial for some students to have ownership of their learning by being in charge of where they can stand by whom they can work with. This brings excitement to their learning and eagerness to work with others. The little stools can also be used as a little table if needed! They are lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom.

I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!

I also have included pouches to assist my students with staying organized. I want to promote responsibility for all my students and giving them their own pouch with their materials for everyday classwork as well as math curriculum games and pieces. These pouches will also assist organization and ownership for my students because the have a place to put their own materials and not worry about them getting lost.
