Mrs. Hastings’ Classroom Edit display name

https://www.donorschoose.org/classroom/6500654 Customize URL

I work in a collaborative math classroom which integrates both exceptional education and general education students. I push a growth-mindset in my classroom and work with students to help them learn to advocate for themselves and their diverse needs in the classroom environment. Many students struggle to engage fully with learning due to attention issues. Standing laptop carts will provide these students with an opportunity to stand and move while learning, and will help them recognize how important it is to learn to advocate for themselves and their needs. These laptop carts will also allow students to work in small groups while standing and to collaborate with each other in a flexible learning environment. Many students struggle to view math as anything but rigid; these will allow many of my students to learn how to be "math geniuses" as I call them, by making the math learning environment work for them!
