Glowing and Growing in 1st Grade: Together We Grow
Help me give my students the best year ever. A comfy carpet to sit comfortably on during circle time would mean the world. Food insecurity is a big problem and snacks would be a huge boost in confidence.

My Project
Flexible seating in the classroom allows students to be comfortable while reading and doing independent work. It also would be a great incentive. The classroom carpet is a staple in a primary classroom and it would make for a wonderful, comfortable space for circle time or for mini lessons. Living in a state where there are quite a few rainy days, means indoor recess and watching a show is not always the best thing so I would like for them to have access to STEM toys, games, and things to do with their hands. Food insecurity is a big issue with scholars not having snack or there not being enough leftovers from breakfast to provide everyone with something to eat. Your donations would mean the world and then some!
