My Project

To create an optimal learning space, I am requesting classroom essentials, social-emotional learning materials for a calming corner, a standing desk for flexible seating, and necessary tools for technology. A well-equipped “Think Space” will provide students with a safe, quiet place to self-regulate and reflect when they need a moment to refocus. Materials such as sensory tools, noise cancelling headphones, bouncing bands for use while seated, books, and mindfulness activities will support their emotional well-being. The standing desk allows for flexible seating for students who benefit from movement to stay engaged while working. Essential tech accessories such as headphones and projector adapters will allow further success in using technology in the classroom. The other supplies reflect our daily classroom needs.

Thank you for your kindness and support!
