My Project

My students thrive when they have choices — not just in what they learn, but how they learn. With your help, I want to create a flexible, student-centered classroom where movement and comfort are part of the learning process. I want to add a cozy bean bag chair, a mobile standing desk, and a mobile whiteboard.

I want to give my students the tools they need to take ownership of their learning environment.

Whether they need to stand while brainstorming, cozy up with a book, or collaborate at the whiteboard, these resources will support focus, creativity, and collaboration for every kind of learner. The bean bag chair will be a cozy reading or cool-down spot that helps students feel safe, calm, and focused. Great for independent reading, brain breaks, or simply offering a soft seating choice for those who need it. A double-sided, rolling whiteboard can be used for student brainstorming, group work, and quick lessons on the go. A height-adjustable desk on wheels gives students the flexibility to move while working, perfect for those who need to stretch, stand, or move around to focus better.

With these additions, I’m building a classroom that meets students where they are — physically and mentally. Your donation doesn’t just buy furniture — it empowers focus, creativity, and confidence. Thank you for supporting flexible minds and flexible seating!
