My Project

Many students experienced learning loss due to the disruptions in their education. Upon returning to normalcy, it is important that students feel safe and comfortable in the classroom. The pandemic and its associated stressors, such as fears about health and safety, social isolation, and uncertainty about the future. I am requesting Chill Sack Bean Bag Chair, Floor Seating Cushions, Area Rug, Healthy Snacks and more. By giving them a comfortable place, they can feel relaxed and not have other worries. Students also have shown a need for healthy foods. By having healthy snacks in my classroom, hunger will hopefully not be an issue in my classroom. If students have energy they can focus and learn better.
