My Project

My students are full of exuberance when they are fully able to connect to the content. I can see twinkles in their eyes when they are engaging in activities they can relate to and have the confidence to tackle.

To that end, I would like to continue adding to my arsenal of materials, tools and furniture that have proven to work for my group of students.

The stools I have selected will finish my incomplete set of seating for my small group learning center. The presentation materials allow me to model and organize information with the children as well as clearly show my expectations of work to be done. Lastly, the organizational tools will be instrumental in making the lessons flow more smoothly so as to keep the students engaged.
