My Students
My class consists of 32 beautiful children who strive to be the best even though they are faced with the world. Our school is located close to Coney Island in Brooklyn New York. People across the United States envy my students because of their "gorgeous" living environment. However, many of my students come from low-income homes. Their first homes are actually my classroom and my school. I strive to set the bar high for they expect a home to be. A home should be inviting, safe, and a place you want to be. In order for my students to be brilliant, it is my job first to create a loving and learning environment in which they want to enter every day!
My Project
Help me give my students the materials needed for flexible seating and an organized classroom library. My students will be attracted to reading through an organized library in which they can relax and be calmed by the colors and organization in which I provide to them. They will be able to read a variety of genres around the room and find comfort in reading. They will choose fabulous books out of gorgeous baskets and be able to sit flexibly around the room. Specifically, my students need vibrant storage bins from Lakeshore, books on the topic of Government, and wobble chairs. When my students are provided with a fabulous ambiance and great materials it will grow the seed or learning in which they so much need! They will take the love of reading with them into their middle school experiences! They require beautiful organized bins and flexible seating in order for this to happen.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
