A Place to Be Engaged in Learning

Help me give my students a variety of learning opportunities with flexible seating, classroom rewards, art supplies, and Spanish activities for all our multilingual students.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Dennise Skipps's classroom raised $988

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students are the greatest students; they work hard and have overcome many challenges. Most of my students come from low income families and at times from shelters. Despite all of that they always show up ready to learn and help others.

My Project

These materials will be used to provide my students with flexible seating and increase Spanish language acquisition (we are a dual language classroom.) Students will be given the opportunity to choose where to sit while they learn Spanish, and be comfortable!

Flexible seating will increase engagement and learning.

Students will also receive materials that will increase their language skills, especially in Spanish.

Help me provide this fun classroom environment for my students. This is something my students will love and will help increase our positive classroom environment, every student needs this at school.
