Smiling faces and lots of excitement for learning is what you see when you step into my 4th-grade class. As a second-year teacher, these first few months with a new group of students have been nothing short of wonderful yet a little challenging at the same time.
My classroom is made up of future teachers, doctors, lawyers, Olympic athletes, and so much more!
The sky's the limit!
My heart has been overflowing with the "I love you!"s and the "Thank you for being my teacher!" I want nothing but the best for these students. I want my students to exceed in every way possible, and, with your help, we can make great future leaders together!
My Project
Flexible seating is all the rage of a 21st-century classroom. I have tried to add flexible seating options in my classroom over the years. Thanks to Donors Choose, we currently have wobble stools and cushioned crates, BUT we need more! This project will provide my students with a cafe table and chairs, along with wobble cushions to use throughout our space.
According to recent studies, flexible seating benefits can include: choice, movement, community, comfort, collaboration, and sensory input.
As a teacher, I am responsible for ensuring that my kiddos are succeeding both academically and emotionally. If I can create a space of inclusion and safety, my students are destined to do great things!
DonorsChoose is the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.
As a teacher-founded nonprofit, we're trusted by thousands of teachers and supporters across the country. This classroom request for funding was created by Mrs. Barnes and reviewed by the DonorsChoose team.
