Imagine a classroom where learning is as bouncy as a Saturday morning cartoon and as exciting as a science experiment gone right. That's the dream I have for my fantastic students at our Title 1 school in Baltimore City!
My project aims to transform our learning space into a dynamic hub of creativity and exploration.
We're on a mission to get flexible seating balls, STEM kits, and chair pockets to create an environment where curiosity knows no bounds!
Flexible Seating Balls: Picture this – instead of traditional chairs, we'll have colorful, bouncy seating balls. Not only will this make sitting super fun, but it also helps improve posture and keeps those little minds engaged during lessons.
STEM Kits: Blast off into the world of STEM with exciting kits that turn ordinary lessons into extraordinary adventures. From building mini-robots to creating erupting volcanoes, these kits will spark the love for science, technology, engineering, and math in our students.
Chair Pockets: Ever seen a superhero without a utility belt? Our chairs are getting an upgrade with chair pockets! These nifty organizers will hold our STEM treasures, making sure everything is within arm's reach for our budding scientists and engineers.
Let's make learning so exciting that every student can't wait to bounce into the classroom each morning! Thank you for being a superhero for education – your support means the world to us!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
