My Project

Over time, putty gets ruined or misplaced, so I am hoping to get the students replacement putty that they need. We started out with so many different types of putty, and now we are down to just 2 left. The kids have enjoyed having a wide variety of putty - some that have different textures or items in them.

Noise cancelling headphones are helpful when there are loud noises, a disruption of sounds.

This is super helpful if a student needs a quiet moment but does not want to leave the classroom because they can put these noise cancelling headphones on.
