My Project

This project may seem pretty random, because it really is! Over the course of many school years, I have slowly depleted some items I use all the time and it's time for a refresh!

It's the little things I use all the time that add up and also make a huge impact on students.

1. Birthday cards--because I mail one full of stickers to each student in the school every year.

2. Blank CDs--because for concerts, I take all the tracks and combine them on one CD to make it easy on our sound person!

3. Markers--because my go to Sub plan is mystery coloring sheets where they color by code.

4. Sharpies and dry erase markers--a daily thing I use!

5. Glowsticks--because twice a year, all grade levels go bananas in music class having fun with glowsticks to learn musical form and rhythm.
