Help My First Graders Expand Their Learning Environment!

My students need areas other than their desks to learn and come together. The bean bag chairs will double as a quiet space and a place for independent reading, and a carpet for group time.

My Students

My students are phenomenal learners who I believe will thrive in a warm, inviting environment. Young learners need to be able to move around and have fun transitions in order to effectively retain information, though no two students are the same. My first graders will definitely benefit from having a space where they can read comfortably or get away from all the hustle and bustle around the classroom. They need a space where we can all sit and have our group time. From all of us from room 25, thank you for your support!

My Project

With your donations will be able to fill my classroom with resources and supplies that will enable me to give my students the creative and exciting experience they deserve. My vision is to have bean bag chairs in our quiet reading area to help promote excitement for independent reading and literacy. This space would double as a quiet place to go if a student is feeling upset or just needs a little break. I want a colorful carpet that would allow us to have morning meetings and group time in a place other than their desks that also adds to learning. Unfortunately, I do not have the resources to provide all these things for my classroom and students, so if you are able and willing to do so, please give what you can. My students and I will definitely appreciate it! Thank you so much for your support.
