Keep Kids Comfy & Snacking While Learning

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kline's classroom raised $230

My Project

If kids are hungry, too hot, or too cold they can't focus on their learning. In my classroom I pride myself on creating a safe space for little minds to grow, play and learn. Many of our students live in shelters and often come to school hungry, please help me provide them with a little snack to settle their tummies. Giving them a snack when needed will help motivate their minds and will give them the energy to keep learning and participating in class!

One of the most crucial parts of learning is the environment.

Having a classroom that is conducive to learning is key! Please help me create a classroom that is warm and welcoming by providing us with comfy bean bag chairs for flexible seating. Allowing students a choice in seating while learning can be just the motivation they need to finish their work and achieve greatness. My students will sit in the beanbag chairs to practice reading skills, have conversations with classmates, and relax when needed. Thanks for considering our project!
