Flexible Gifted Classroom

Help me give my students a creative,STEM focused gifted classroom with flexible seating.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. McKinley's classroom raised $980

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are in a Title 1 school, most of them have limited resources at home to help with learning and or have difficult family situations. I want our gifted classroom to be comfortable and welcoming for them so that learning can be fun and high level.

The flexible seating will allow for them to have seating options for movement and the learning activities for coding, math and reading will allow for differentiated center activities.

My students excel in hands on learning and are eager to incorporate STEM into our everyday learning.
