My Project

My students are from a low income, poverty stricken area. This area has limited resources. Our Schools curriculum uses a multi-sensory learning approach. The items on my list such as LED writing tablets, markers, and crayons will help students learn the curriculum in new and exciting ways. This is an exciting way to engage learning and to meet students with where they're at. I have also seen a lot of my Kindergarten students struggle with sitting still and at their desk. The bands would be beneficial in this area with keeping a calm body and ready to learn.
