My students need a horseshoe table, stand up desk, chairs, wobble stools, and small carpets to help create a comfortable classroom that will postively influence their learning.
My students are a collection of wonderful children who try their best with everything that they do! As a special education teacher, I do teach students with specific learning disabilities. My students are able to understand that hard work does have incredible rewards.
My students' perseverance, tenacity, and kindness is the reason why I am a special education teacher.
I am so grateful to be able to impact my students in so many ways. However, I am even more grateful that my students have helped me grow personally, learning that patience, connections and communication are vital to success. I cannot wait to see how we will both grow together this upcoming school year!
My Project
As a new teacher, I have limited resources that will help my students learn to the best of their ability. One essential resource is the right furniture for my classroom.
This furniture will help create comfort but will also positively influence all the learning that will occur in my classroom!
I am requesting a horseshoe table and a set of chairs. This table is necessary so that I can interact easily with my students while teaching. The chairs are a necessity for the horseshoe table. The standing desk will help me be able to have teaching materials easily accessible within the small classroom. Finally, the wobble chairs will positively impact my students learning! One of the most prevalent disabilities in my classroom is ADHD. The wobble chairs will help my students focus on learning while still being able to get their wiggles out! This furniture is essential to help my teaching, but most importantly, to help my students have a successful year!
Other than having the correct furniture to help my students learn, it is also important to use furniture to create a classroom community. The two floor rugs will be used in our small library area and our cozy corner. These rugs will create a feeling of comfort and relaxation that will help calm most of my students anxieties or stressors that they deal with during the school day. The bookshelf will be a great way to create an accessible library for my students even though the classroom is small!
This furniture will greatly impact my students in many ways. It will help my students focus on their learning. It will help me interact easily with my students while teaching. This furniture will also help to create a classroom community that will provide the foundation of success our year!
