My Project

The goal of my DonorsChoose project is to transform my classroom into a dynamic learning environment that fosters comfort, engagement, and collaboration.

By incorporating flexible seating options such as bean bags, donuts, and mats, I aim to provide students with a range of choices to suit their individual preferences and needs.

These seating options will not only promote better posture and circulation but also encourage active learning and participation.

By creating a more relaxed and inviting atmosphere, I hope to cultivate a positive classroom culture where students feel empowered to explore, interact, and excel academically. With your generous support, we can create a space that promotes creativity, collaboration, and student-centered learning experiences. Thank you for helping to make this vision a reality for my first-year classroom!
