Help me give my students flexible seating opportunities with a rolling standing desk, woodland-themed decoration, and new books for our classroom library would also be greatly appreciated.

My Project

I am a first year teacher starting from scratch and could use support for my first classroom! My students will benefit from flexible seating options, such as a standing rolling desk. I am also hoping to cultivate a fun, engaging classroom experience with a dedicated theme catered to the needs of my students. First grade students benefit greatly from being exposed to a variety of literature! Supplying my students with a variety of books will provide them with the opportunity to grow and explore through literature. I am hopeful that these items on my list will help me provide my students with an exceptional learning experience.
