My Project

I would love new materials for their birthdays such as crowns, a birthday wall, and name tags. I think by being able to see each child’s birthday, they can learn the months of the year and understand when their birthday is coming. The earthquake you would be such a fun STEM activity to see who can build the best building! The fashion design materials will be great for the students to use their imagination and really see what they like the best. All these materials will improve their learning daily.
