Even down to the cleaning supplies as there is the flu (both), COVID, stomach bugs, and more going around. With these I am able to keep my room clean and healthy for the students. The mat, cushions, bookshelf, and books have all been so helpful for my students to help encourage independent reading. When we have Reading corner they grab a cushion after choosing a book from the bookshelf (I rotate books every other day) which is helping with decoding wording and our fluency. \r\nThe classroom partition/divider has been so helpful when I need to pull a small group or doing assessments, benchmarking, or anything like that where I need to minimize the distractions. The stool has been helpful for me to have a seat when pulling groups by not having to drag my bulky desk chair around and it helps me go from table to table when students need help when working. \r\nAll the social emotional items have helped my students with recognizing feelings and ways to handle the emotions. The microfiber towels help with small or big cleanups and as a protective mat when doing arts and crafts. This is helping my students grow both academically and with their social emotional learning.
