My Project

Our classroom is built to support the needs of all students and be a welcoming place to all types of learners! Over this past school year there were a few items that my students requested or showed a need for. One of the main things they asked for was a rug big enough for all of them to sit on together! We also found a need for a few sensory items for the calm down corner, the touch sensory lights and bubble tube would be a perfect addition. All of the other items would help the students stay organized and informed! We would love to add each of these items to our classroom to continue making it a place where all students feel they can learn and come in times of need.
