My Project

Adding flexible seating and a reading display will transform my classroom into a more student-centered, engaging space. Flexible seating allows students to choose a spot where they feel most comfortable and focused, fostering independence, collaboration, and better engagement. A well-organized book display will make books more accessible and inviting, encouraging a love for reading and exploration.

Goals for This Project:

Create a comfortable, inclusive learning environment

Encourage student choice and ownership in their learning

Increase engagement and focus by providing flexible seating options

Inspire a love for reading by making books more visible and inviting.

What Makes My Students Special?

My students are curious, creative, and eager to learn. They come from diverse backgrounds and bring unique perspectives to the classroom. They thrive when given the opportunity to explore and take ownership of their learning, and they deserve a space that supports their growth, creativity, and success!
