My Project

In class 101 we are asking for some flexible seating for our classroom, so students can move around and feel safe and comfortable in their learning environment. We are also asking for math dry erase boards to help learners visualize math and experience hands on learning. We use half notebooks for our Orton Gillingham approach to learning trick words. Students need different options for seating so they can move around for certain tasks with different modalities accessible to them. Please help us reach our goal to the classroom of bright learners.
