My Students

As a teacher in a low income school, my students are faced with various challenges on a daily basis. Not only in the classroom but outside school as well. With some students being stressed by what happens away from school, I encourage an environment that makes learning fun.

Each child in my classroom enjoys learning and celebrating their accomplishments.

Even though they come from varied backgrounds they do support each other and learn from each other. They are provided with group work, individual work, partners in order to reach their needs. I so look forward to each year with new students ready to learn.

My Project

Students to need to be comfortable when working. When students come to small group around a table, space is often limited. The use of these stools will allow more space for my students to sit comfortably. Not only will my students be comfortable, it will give them a chance to sit on something different from their normal chairs.

They are often wiggly when sitting and these stools will give them the opportunity to move around a little without disturbing the others who are sitting next to them.

Therefore, allowing each student to focus on their own learning in a comfortable manner.
