FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Batten's classroom raised $260

My Project

My EC students are so inquisitive and ready to learn! They are kind to each other and accept each other's differences. I love watching them learn and grow. They have helped me grow as well in my 30 years of teaching. One of my goals is to foster a love of learning in each and every one of my students.

The materials I've requested will help them have more hands-on experiences and opportunities to develop problem solving skills by using quality stem materials and manipulatives.

These items will also help them build better relationships with each other by working together in cooperative groups. For my students, this can sometimes be difficult, but by having these materials available for daily use, they will have more opportunities for success.
