Ml Classroom Upgrade

Help me give my students flexible seating and a space saving bookshelf to upgrade our classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Poussard's classroom raised $410

This project is fully funded

My Project

The wobble cushions will be used by my ML students as they are full of energy. We only have 2 to use, and adding more will be more equitable. Students look for them every class and take turns, but having more would help with smoother transitions. The rotating bookshelf will help eliminate other longer shelves in my classroom, creating more space for students and teachers to move around.

My students come to me once or twice a day and are trying to master their English skills.

I want to create a space where they come in and are ready to learn. I have learned that flexible seating helps students' brains and have had a lot of success throughout my teaching career.
