Creating an Environment Where Students are Excited to Learn

My Project

Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning, be comfortable, make the choices that work best for them, and makes learning fun. Currently, I have four floor chairs but getting two more, would allow me to make sure that each person in a small group would have a seat. I have noticed amazing differences in my students when they are given a choice in their seating.

The Keva planks would be used during our STEM time to increase innovative thinking and inspire creativity and ingenuity.

A rolling standing desk would allow me to have my computer, teacher's books, and teaching resources with me while going around the classroom to help students.

The Surface Pro stand would allow me to stand my computer up as a camera to display student work or for students to display their work to help explain how they solved.

The plastic book bins would allow students to be more organized and bring their needed materials to different places around room.
