My Project

My students earn points every day based on our three school-wide expectations. They must be respectful, responsible, and safe. When students demonstrate these expectations they are rewarded points. My students use these points to buy food or the ability to sit in the special flexible seating. My project is helping to restock my classroom for the end of the school year.

My students spend an average of 90 minutes a day in my classroom; flexible seating and snacks help in their comfort and productivity.

The materials I am asking for are chairs, chargers, and food that will allow my students to continue to create a home-like atmosphere in my classroom and finish out our school year on a strong note. When students are comfortable, I can reach higher levels of English and productivity.

Grades 9-12
