My students come to work on math in small groups throughout the school day. We don't use computers often, but there are times when we will do a lesson, activity or assessment on them. I have a couple of chromebooks that are available for students to use, and it's nice to have headphones available to them if they need to listen to part of their assessment. There are times during the year when the school engages in diagnostic testing, and we have students coming to our math room to work on their assessment. If they forget their headphones, they can use a pair in the room and spend more time engaged in their math thinking (rather than going back and forth to their classroom).\r\n\r\nThe baby wipes are so valuable for just keeping the room and materials clean throughout the day.
