My Project

As I am moving to 1st grade, I need a few things to help my classroom run smoothly. Most importantly, I want the classroom to be inviting to my incoming little learners. The rug has flowers that mark spot holders for students to sit comfortably and in their own bubble.

Book bins to make books easy to find.

I will use the book bins to sort books by reading levels so the students can easily select a bin and find books that are right for them! I am so excited to move to a new grade level and begin creating a friendly and exciting environment that is perfect for learning!
