My Project

My classroom is in need of new supplies to help my students thrive to learn! I am requesting a variety of things to help my students feel supported and comfortable in room 213.

A big part of the project that we are asking for is math workbooks.

We would use these books to work on foundational skills during our math rotations. It would be great material to help us build our math knowledge and practice important categories that will transfer into their real lives, such as learning about money. Another thing we are asking for is a world globe and map! We would love to have these in the classroom so the students can be exposed to other states, countries, and continents.
