My Project

Creating a safe, welcoming, and comfortable environment is one of the most important parts of my classroom. My students, primarily in grades 9–10, face a range of learning challenges—including ADHD, learning disabilities, and visual impairments. For them, a calm and supportive space makes a big difference in how they learn, focus, and feel throughout the day.

This year, I’m working to add more flexible seating options to better support their needs.

Flexible seating allows students to choose the space that works best for them—whether that’s a wobble stool, a floor cushion, or a cozy chair. These choices help reduce anxiety, increase engagement, and build a sense of independence and comfort in the classroom.

I’m trying to get a jump start on gathering items now so everything is ready for the fall. If you’d like to support this project—by donating a seating option, contributing to the effort, or even just sharing this message—I would be incredibly grateful.

Thank you so much for being in my corner and for supporting my students. If you want to see what I’m all about and how much I love teaching.
