My Project

I am asking for a few new math items to use in my classroom next year. I have added some whiteboards, plastic slip covers, and flashcards to my project. I feel these items would help reinforce my students' math skills.

I am wanting to inspire my 5th graders to read.

So, I added some new books for my classroom library. I chose topics that varied in topic to reach a wide variety of readers that enter my door. I chose books that were nominated as Mark Twain Nominee 2024 books as well as Show Me Readers 2024 books. These nominations are always a great way to encourage my students to read.
