My Project

My classroom is full of wonderful 4th grade students. I want to make sure my students feel welcomed, safe, and excited to learn every day. My goal for this project is to create engaging learning for my students by providing materials and flexible seating opportunities (such as stools and floor seats, etc.) Providing these materials creates a positive learning environment that supports development and learning environment. I am also needing headphones for my students as well as a bookshelf organizer to store our classroom books in. My goal for my students is to be organized and utilize flexible seating opportunities to enhance their learning experiences.
