This project is fully funded

My Students

Our school is very focused on the success and the happiness of our students. Teachers are asked to create a community of students that make them feel safe and secure in our classes.

Many of the students receive additional support for curriculum and additional skills.

All students try their best to succeed in the classroom.

My Project

Many students across the US have different learning styles and need different learning environments to help them succeed. The flex ball seats will allow 6 of my students to be able to balance on these while I teach. It will allow my students to achieve what they are really capable of.

The bean bag chair will bring comfort and persuasiveness to come and sit in the library and read.

I want to make sure that my students enjoy reading, and allowing comfortable and inviting seating in my class library is crucial.
