My Project

As a beginning teacher, it is important to me to be able to provide my students with a learning environment that fosters collaboration and innovation.

In this project, I am fundraising for new tables that encourage students to collaborate with one another, along with flexible seating options.

I will use these materials in my classroom to design a space that excites students to learn alongside one another, and that supports blended learning strategies. My goal for this project is to create a welcoming space that excites students to learn new ideas.
