This group of fifth graders is a fantastic bunch! They are imaginative, playful, creative, and fun! Not only do they try their best in school, but they are also kind to one another. They are eager to present information and answers when asked.
Their academic levels vary from high to low, and everything in between.
Several of my students require intervention services, which means they need a wide range of materials in order for them to be successful. This includes classroom books, small group books, flexible seating options, etc.
My Project
Education is an evolutionary system; learning should be as well. With flexible seating, we are allowing students to evolve as learners, encouraging them to take charge of their ability to understand information in a space that allows them to explore that process. With this project, I hope to provide my students, in an under-funded, rural district, the ability to do just that. They will be allowed to learn in a space that best suits their needs and fuels their creative process in a way that traditional desks and chairs do not. Help me give my students reason to be learners, an excuse to be creative, and the ability to take charge of their educational experience.
