My Project

This fall I will be making the change to a new school! My co-teacher and I are so excited to open the first fifth grade class at our school!

We are hoping to start the year off right with flexible seating options and some elements to create a mindful classroom.

We have found that by providing flexible seating options for students we are able to increase productivity. In addition, we try our best to create a calming and welcoming classroom. The other materials we are requesting, such as the essential oils and light strips, will allow us to do that. Students spend about 35 hours a week in their classroom. We want to make their space feel like a home and these materials will allow us to do this.

We are looking forward to this new journey and appreciate all of your help!
