My Project

Having basic supplies ensures success in the classroom. The behavior classroom utilizes positive behavior intervention. This project is to provide basic supplies that may be utilized through entire school year .

Markers and color books are used to help calm students who may be upset or having a rough day.

Baskets and storage mean easy access to supplies and easy clean up for our kids who are scheduled breaks. A pencil sharpener is one of our most wanted items as we go through many pencils a day and sharpening with a manual sharpener is hard especially for the younger kids .

Play dough is another favorite item used for our kids on scheduled breaks.

My goal for this project is to be able to provide the students who utilize the classroom with markers and pencils and other essential items needed to finish work or get regulated and back to learning.

Ms. Kaira
Grades 3-5
