My Project

We're approaching a new school year, which means time for change. After taking all items down in the classroom this year, we found we were in need of new items!

I love to have a classroom that is friendly to those with visual impairments, as some of my students may prefer high contrast.

I want to update our bulletin boards to be black & have some fun colorful borders. I've added some new colors, like pink and polka dots to switch it up and even decorate our door fun!

I've also added some other classroom necessities that we are always in need of like command hooks & some velcro.
