My Project
This year, I’m excited to welcome a new group of students into my classroom, and my mission is to create a space that feels like a home away from home. Many of my students face daily challenges beyond school, and it’s important to me that when they enter our classroom, they feel safe, supported, and empowered to be their best selves.
To make that happen, I’ve selected items that meet their social, emotional, and academic needs.
Flexible seating options like wiggle seats and floor cushions will allow students to choose the learning space that feels best for them ;which is especially important for those who need sensory support to focus. I’ve also included organization tools like file folders and hanging folders to create a structured, calming environment where everything has its place.
To keep our classroom clean, safe, and inviting, I’ve added sanitizing sprays, disinfecting wipes, and tissues. A clean space helps students feel cared for and respected. For creativity and motivation, I’ve included scratch art cards, slap bracelets, and vibrant scented markers. My students love copying notes when I use colorful markers, and this year I’ll have a chalkboard, but due to my sensory sensitivities, chalk is not an option for me. These markers will help me teach comfortably and effectively.
My goal is to give my students choices, comfort, and a space where learning is exciting and engaging. These items will make a direct impact on their ability to focus, create, and grow — academically and emotionally. My students are special because they show up every day despite the unknowns they face, and they deserve a classroom that feels like theirs. With your support, I can make that a reality.
