Mrs. Poppell from St Petersburg FL is requesting Reading Nooks, Desks & Storage through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

An Equitable and Safe Learning Environment!

Help me give my students the most equitable and safe learning environment during this uncertain time. I will use flexible seating in order to give students more "space" to ensure social distancing.

My Students

Every year, no matter what the circumstances are, my students come to school and expect to learn. My job is to give them the best learning experience that they can possibly have!

My students, throughout all of my years of teaching, have shown me how intelligent, capable, and empathetic the next generations will be.

My Project

Students will be able to take advantage of flexible seating instead of using a traditional desk. This allows for a more equitable learning environment and it will also give them more space to call their own due to social distancing guidelines. They will each have their own drawers for individual books, boxes for their individual supplies, and lanyards to keep track of their masks so that they do not get lost or confused with anyone else's. My goal is to keep them as comfortable, safe, and excited about learning as I can.
