My Project

As the new year started, students came back to completing their digital assessments. We have been using multiple digital platforms in class through out the day, therefore students are utilizing their headphones. Many students headphones are already breaking apart. The headphones will given to any students who will need a new one.

The push lights will be used to set up voice level system as a visual reminder for students to know what level we are working at.

The fasteners and pastel papers will be used for upcoming projects and publishing pieces. We have completely depleted our bandage supply, therefore the bandages will be used to treat minor injuries in the classroom. The mesh bags will be used to set up student's book baggies that they take home for independent reading. The ziplock bags and labels will be used to create materials for ELA and math centers and group works. The lap desks will be used for students who need a quite work area the rug. The timer will be used to help individual students who need quite visual reminders to stay on task.
