Mrs. Matzke's First Graders

Help me give my students opportunities to have a quiet space when a break is needed with the cube, explore hands on learning and a defined space for whole learning on the area rug.

My Project

These first grade students are learning how to navigate public spaces after spending their home years impacted by the pandemic.

The cube will help students who are feeling overwhelmed to have a quiet, safe space to reset.

The area rug helps students learn the appropriate place for whole group learning, by having a defined meeting area. The robot and accessories are fun ways for students to learn how to work in a group while exploring hands on activities. The magnet letters and dry erase markers give students multisensory options for phonics and literacy learning.
