My Project

In my class I have a bellwork system that students reply to their daily review in a composition book. They especially love to reply to the Friday question: What did you learn in Reading Class this week and what did you like or dislike about Reading Class this week and why? I love to read their responses to that particular question too. This year I found an added topic to the back of the notebook. We will be adding in off topic questions that I have asked my teacher, at the end of the year we will color code and tally the results, they love to ask me random questions. My students are very likeable. They each have different strengths and I love to point them out to them to encourage their efforts. These students deserve to have a happy and calm environment that can help them along their day. I want each of them to feel happy and calm in my room with a fresh healthy scent and foot fidgets, currently I only have a few and each student would like to feel special during class without having to ask or wait for a nondisturbing fidget.
