My Project

Our school no longer provides classrooms with rugs, which can create a warm and inviting space as well as a comfortable place for meeting as a community. In addition, new curricular mandates require students to have a number of workbooks in addition to the notebooks they typically have for each course of study.

In a dual language classroom like ours the amount of material can be overwhelming.

Therefore, we are hoping to have a seat sack for each student to stay organized. This will help with keeping the room clutter free as well as provide each student with a clear system for organizing their materials.

Please help us to create a classroom that is neat, welcoming and designed to support student engagement and learning.
