My Project

This is my first classroom ever! After being with them for the first week, I have noticed the need for some items. I would love to help my students with behavior challenges succeed, and being able to provide them with differentiated seating is something that I believe could help them focus on their education while keeping their bodies busy. I would love to be able to give my entire class supplies that will help them bring joy to their work and a little bit of color and razzle-dazzle. Items like markers and notebook paper will be used daily. I have been collecting things for my classroom for quite a while, but after meeting my new students, I realized that I didn’t have everything they need to be successful. I have also had to clean out the classroom and so we are in need of markers, glue, construction paper, and erasers.
