My Project

My second graders will be promoted to third grade this summer, and they need several reinforcement resources to help enhance their learning over the summer. These basic school supplies will help them to enter third grade. Books are a great way to experience the world with real life characters. My students' imaginations are in overdrive when they are reading a good book with characters that are familiar to them. They enjoy reading so these books will be a huge help to make sure there are advancing in their learning towards a new a grade level.

The workbooks are inclusive which helps the students with math, language arts, science, and social studies.

Trays will truly help keep us with the storage.

In the classroom we need storage to keep everything organized, tidy, and readily available for all students to access.

Most often students are drawing to represent a topic. They will use these comics books for inspiration to help them for their comic strips using pencils.
