My Project

This project will help teachers at my school create new and inviting centers for students. Centers would include resources for all subject areas. Teachers will also have access to teacher created materials that support students social and emotional development. Center materials will also be related to thematic units students are currently studying. Right now teachers are relying on making lots of materials. With these gift cards teachers can create centers for kids that will be reusable for many years to come. We would be grateful for resources created by teachers made with student interest in mind.
