I teach at a STEM-focused elementary school. My students are creative, inquisitive, and compassionate second graders. They are learning about community, responsibility, and collaboration in a hands-on STEM classroom. I am inspired by their love for learning and their willingness to push through the tough stuff.
My students are doers, leaders, and our future.
My students thrive in a classroom that supports choice, creativity, and the freedom to think outside the box. They start every day with yoga and meditation. My students thrive when problem-solving and finding answers to today's social injustices. They put together a yard sale to send a girl in Pakistan to school. They care. My students love to talk through problems and share ideas. They are collaborative, cooperative, creative, and kind. Each and every day they inspire me to become a better teacher.
My Project
My students need a carpet for morning meeting, flexible seating, and group work. A beautiful and comfy cooperative space to work on social emotional skills would be just what we need after so much unsettling issues through the past couple of years of COVID.
Now my students and I would love to find some normalcy in the classroom and a clean, bright rug might do the trick.
We will use this rug in so many ways. Morning Meeting, Social Skill workshops, reading. story time, partner fun, and so much more.
