My Project

In my classroom we need supports to ensure all students get their needs met. The pitchers will allow us to provide students with water throughout the day. The pitchers are smaller and will give students a chance to practice pouring. The goldfish crackers will be given to students during snack. The worms will be used to replenish our worm farm. The students take care.of the worms by keeping them moist, feeding, and often reading to them. The toilet seat is needed for students that need a little boost to get to the potty. All of these items will supports students in my pre-k classroom.
