I teach 19 hard working, silly, and amazing first grade students in a small East Texas town. I have taught first grade for 15 years and been a member of ATPE for all 15. I love what I do. My students love to work with hands-on activities, make creative art projects and play games. Theys do not respond as positively to worksheets or seat work activities as they do to physically manipulating the words, letters, or manipulatives. My students love to work in centers or sing songs to learn new concepts. I strive to make my classroom a fun, safe, and exciting learning environment.
My Project
My students and I are so excited about looping together to 2nd grade next year. We have come up with a list of things we need for a refreshing start together next year.
We discussed changing up the look of the room for next year but they want it to be a surprise.
So I have added new boarder, a pocket chart, letters, and other supplies to change up the classroom.
We love to learn hands-on through stations and being creative. So we have also asked for craft supplies such as colored paper, bags, index cards and a storage box. We also need 2nd grade learning games to be used in stations.
Your help with this project will make a huge difference in my classroom! I will be able to use these resources for future classes to come, as well!
