My Project

My students will benefit from a safe space to decompress and express their feelings. Sometimes we all need a break. The "quiet cube" will provide a safe and quiet space for my students to rest and think about choices.

My young students come from a variety of backgrounds and they need a variety of modalities for learning.

Literature is a way to help them develop vocabulary.

As five and six year olds, they need an outlet for expression. Help me help our young children as we prepare for the future.
