A Comfy Environment to Learn

Help me give my students a cool environment to learn. My classroom becomes extremely hot in the spring, early summer, and fall. Students become extremely uncomfortable in the heat, and learning suffers.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ladia's classroom raised $173

My Students

My gifted class is a place of challenges and exploration. My students are ready to explore literature from many cultures and backgrounds. They will spend the year learning beyond their grade, so that they don't get bored or tired of school. Every lesson is a new adventure!

My students are from diverse backgrounds including African American, Middle Eastern, Asian, and Caucasian.

They have many different life experiences and home lives. Yet, my students are amazing, intelligent, creative, diverse, and positive!

My students are fearless and ready to be engaged when it comes to technology. They want to soak up knowledge like a sponge. They are always brimming with questions!

My Project

These supplies will enhance the learning environment by giving my students a cool area to learn. Ordinarily the school's air condition unit is extremely limited, and students regularly suffer in the heat. Students will often become uncomfortable and fatigued due to the heat. Can you imagine suffering in dry heat and accomplishing challenging feats in school?

Your donation will give my students a comfortable environment to learn.

These cooling fans will give my students an environment where labs, activities, reading, debates, and simulations can take place comfortably. My students already love learning, and this project will enrich their learning environment.
