My Project

My students are energetic, curious, and eager to learn! They thrive in a classroom that encourages movement, collaboration, and hands-on learning. Each day, they bring enthusiasm and creativity, and I want to provide them with an environment that supports their diverse learning needs.

I am requesting flexible seating options and morning tubs to create a dynamic and engaging start to our day.

Flexible seating allows students to choose where and how they work best, promoting focus and independence. Morning tubs filled with hands-on activities will give students a fun and purposeful way to ease into the school day while building critical thinking, fine motor skills, and social connections.

Nonfiction books will help spark curiosity and build essential reading comprehension skills by exposing students to real-world topics and diverse perspectives.

A flexible and inviting classroom environment empowers students to take ownership of their learning. With your support, I can provide seating choices that improve comfort and engagement, along with interactive morning activities that spark creativity and teamwork. These resources will help set a positive tone for each school day, ensuring my students are ready to learn and succeed!

Thank you for believing in my students and helping to create a classroom where all learners can thrive!
