My Project

This project is focused on the mental health of my students. The goal of the project is to create a happier, healthier classroom. I am only going into my second year of teaching and I learned a lot about my students and their needs last year, which go far beyond just a textbook.

In this project, I am seeking flexible seating, games, fidget toys, coloring books, and stickers to ensure my students enjoy their time in my class so they can get the most out of it.

Thank you so much for your support, I am sure my students will love the items from this project.

Ms. Dormer Dr Charles E Brimm Med Arts High School Grades 9-12
