I am requesting air conditioning units. Each of the units will be placed on one side of the classroom to keep the cool airflow rotating inside of our learning space. The donations to this project will help improve the learning environment of my student's during the day in the hot weather. By utilizing the air conditioning units, my students will be able to actively focus on the various parts of our Daily Routine, increase participation and performance. The irritability my students experience will decrease and their performance in their social/emotional skills and conflict resolution steps increase drastically. By donating to our project, you will not only assist with improving and increasing student attention and focus, you will ultimately help with their academic achievement and success. My students are noticeably less disruptive with their peers and recognizably more engaged in their learning when they are comfortable, Not Too Hot, in our classroom. With these new air conditioning units, my students will be able to come into a welcoming, safe classroom.
