My Project

As we come to the final quarter of the school year, students have suggested that we update the classroom for the next grade level. They wanted to create a classroom that would be both fun and relaxing with their creative touch.

Materials needed to help update our classroom are Painted Dots Better Than Paper Bulletin Board Roll, Teacher Created Resources Everyone is Welcome Straight Borders/Trim and Pom-Poms and Tassels Garland, Teacher Created Resources Everyone is Welcome 7" Fun Font Letters, Upcortinassi Fire Resistant Curtains Room Dividers for School Classroom, Outdoor String Lights 25Feet Patio Lights with 27 G40 LED Shatterproof Bulbs, and Boutilon Wrist Mouse Pad, Non-Slip Ergonomic Mouse Pad with Gel Wrist Rest Support.

All of these materials would help create a classroom comfortable and welcoming classroom environment conducive to learning in our language arts classroom for all students. Our classroom goal is to create a learning environment that promotes reading and writing in a classroom designed for students.
