Help me give my students two tower fans in order to create a cooler learning environment so that they can be productive and comfortable in our classroom!
My students are very special first graders in a high needs area of a borough in New York. Many of my students are English language learners and children with special needs. Each student is unique in his or her own way and deserves to have the best educational experience possible. All of my students receive free lunch and come to school every day eager to learn.
Unfortunately, my classroom does not always have the supplies we need.
Every donation makes a difference in my students' lives. I look forward to creating projects that will make our classroom a joyful learning environment. Thank you!
My Project
The Honeywell fans will make a huge difference to students' learning. Students have difficulty learning when they are hot! Giving students fans would also help students focus on their work and not the heat. School is supposed to be a safe and welcoming environment so it's important that I do everything possible to make it a place they want to be!
If the classroom temperature were a bit cooler, students wouldn't need so much time to cool down, and we'd be able to get to work right away.
I'm asking for help to cool down my students so they can learn. Can you focus when you're hot? I know I can't, and neither can our students!
