My Project

I teach in a wonderful public school. My students come to school eager and ready to learn. Their love of learning shines daily. They make every day a wonderful adventure.

My school serves a very diverse population.

The school covers grades kindergarten to eighth grade. It is a Title I school in which all students receive free lunch. There are students with many diverse abilities. We have many students who receive ELL and special education services. All of the students come to school every day eager and ready to learn.

I want to create an atmosphere that is warm and inviting for my students. I believe that providing my students with various seating options makes them enjoy learning and be eager to come to school every day.

I want my classroom environment to meet the needs of my students, and make them feel comfortable and fully engaged.

Research shows that allowing students to sit in comfortable, flexible seating options greatly enhances their focus and learning. The low tables and chairs are exactly what the students will need -- they are indeed very comfortable and will keep them fully engaged. I am sure this will lead to high educational as well as emotional success.

This wonderful workspace will be used for my incoming students as well as many future ones as well.
