A Student Centered Classroom

Help me give my students a comfortable and clean place to learn. I also want to include more interactive activities with dry erase materials to increase student engagement.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hedden's classroom raised $728

My Project

The vinyl floor chairs, vacuum, and micro towels will help keep our reading and floor spaces easily clean. The addition of dry erase materials in the classroom will increase classroom engagement, and student interaction. For example, we will use them to complete Daily Oral Language grammar exercises, as well as spelling drills.

We will also build word walls around the classroom so students can build their academic vocabulary.

Also a stapler will used to organize student work and mount it to places around the classroom to put on public display.
