My Project
First grade is such a fun time in a young person's life. Students in my class are eager to learn. They will begin reading, writing, and experimenting with a variety of other subjects in first grade. They are unique because everything at this age is novel and interesting, and they work very hard. I feel incredibly fortunate to be able to work with them as we lay the groundwork for early childhood learning.
The items we use to transition between subjects during the school day are many.
When first grade students aged 6 and 7 arrive, they are taught not only the basics of reading, writing, and math but also how to take care of and arrange their supplies. These seat covers will help create a welcoming atmosphere in the classroom, which is what I want it to feel like—like a second home! Thanks to your kind donation, hundreds of children will benefit from these organizers. I hope to utilize these seat sacks for many years to come!
