My Project

This project to designed to increase student engagement by providing students access to flexible seating options, differentiated instruction, and materials to build communication skills. The carpet is much needed in our flexible seating classroom, to allow for students to have a designed carpet learning area. Items such as the speaker and microphone are to motivate students during sharing, and to allow for outdoor learning. Floor desk options will allow for small group, or independent work in or outdoors. Other school supplies items, such as electric pencil sharpeners and dry erase markers, assist with students that were unable to purchase school supplies due to their families finacial situation.
