By having an air conditioner in my classroom my students will be able to become more engage in activities for a sustained length of time. They will explore ideas in areas of interest in a cool, comfortable environment. However, my classroom gets really hot, making it difficult for my students to focus and engage as much as they would love to. They get really exhausted and complain that the classroom is too hot. My students lose interest in working in the classroom. I open the windows and put fans to help the temperature go down, but it simply does not cool down. In a cool environment, my students will be able to concentrate while working in different activities throughout all subject areas and enhance their learning for their future. By donating to my Project "Kindergarten Here We Are Cool and Comfortable!" you will help my students improve their attention to task, their ability to focus, and ultimately, enjoy their classroom in a cool comfortable environment!
