Ms. Kirby from Richmond UT is requesting reading nooks, desks & storage through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Collaborating Outside the Box

My students need cubby boxes to store individual materials as we transition to a table seating arrangement rather than a desk seating arrangement.

My Students

I get the opportunity to learn from an amazing group of first graders each day! I am inspired by their enthusiasm, their motivation, their kindness, and the goodness they contribute to our school community.

These kids get excited about new math strategies, our favorite read alouds, opportunities to problem solve, and their effort when attempting something new and difficult.

They especially love when I give them a new challenge!

I want to provide them with the best learning opportunities I can!

My Project

Our class is in the process of transitioning from a desk seating arrangement to sitting at horseshoe tables. As such we are in need of a way to manage/store textbooks, personal folders, and individual work. Cubby boxes are just what we need to keep our materials accessible and tidy!

I am excited for this new opportunity that will allow students to collaborate more effectively!

Students will be seated in groups of 4-6 students. They will have a greater opportunity to work together in small groups and take more ownership in their ability to be part of a working team!

I see this as a great chance to improve the climate of our classroom! We appreciate your support in our endeavor to grow!
