My Students

I work on an Indian Reservation, where more than 50% of the students qualify for free and reduced breakfast and lunch. Most of my students have burdens at home that most people won't get until they adults. They come to school to learn and to try and break the cycle of generational poverty. I tell them that I am hard on them because they can go out and do great things with their life. They come to class to learn, and it is always great to see them light up when they have aced a test or worksheet.

My Project

My classroom is a social studies classroom and this year all teachers started teaching a 90 min reading class. To help out students with their reading skills.

I want to give my students different options in their seats.

Some like soft seats some like office chairs, some like rocking chairs. A room full of students in all sorts of seats, comfortable and learning. They would be able to use the seats when reading, when working on worksheets, when doing test. They could use the seats at almost all times of class.

I also added some colored pencils since we do a lot of maps in my class. We color states, we color countries, we color empires, we color all sorts of things.
