My Project

These storage bins, book display, doodle boards and other materials will help me create my first classroom. I want my classroom to be filled with books and manipulatives for my students to use. White boards are another great resource to have my students use to ensure hands on activities and engagement.

Flexible seating is another great thing to help students who may need this option.

I want my classroom to be like a second home for my students and all of these things in my cart can do that!

I love teaching and by having some of these items, it will make my classroom a better place.

Ms. Tubridy PS 18 Winchester Grades PreK-2
