My Students

We are a class of learners who need the resources to support our education. The students are in a gifted Fourth Grade classroom. The classroom is diverse in culture and ability. There are nineteen student with seven girls and twelve boys. The students are excited about learning and self-discovery. We lack supplies to work on discovery learning and project based learning. The students need an environment that will work with active movement and project based learning. The students work hard every day to better their reading, writing, speech, and math skills.

My Project

My students need to work in a comfortable room. Students learn best with having a comfortable environment. The traditional sitting does not help students to learn to their full capability. The students need a variety of styles of chairs that help them to move around the room. My students learn through projects and active learning, so the tradition plastic chairs do not work with the demands of the students learning. Lets give the students comfortable chairs to sit in and help them to stay actively engaged in the classroom. The students should come to school ready to discover new content.
