My Project

After ten years in grade four, I will be moving to grade 2 in September. Because of this, I will be needing some new furniture items for my classroom. Younger grades can focus better when they are sitting together.

We will need a cute and comfortable carpet to sit together on when we are learning.

Being together in a smaller space enables students to hear me better. I don't have to project my voice so much, making for a 'softer' environment.

It also helps students feel less vulnerable when they are closer together, so they are more confident to participate in group discussions.
