My Project

Every year I strive to create a learning space that is inviting to all students. I want my students to want to come to school. I try my best to create a classroom that feels like a second home to all learners with wall hangings and paper flowers. By making this beautiful space it enables my students to blossom as learners. This year I want to create a very simplistic learning space. I want the room to give my students a sense of calmness. It will also allow my students to get their creative juices flowing. With your support, you will help my vision come to life.
