My Students

My students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day. They check the day's schedule and are anxious to get started.

I teach at a Title 1 school where 100 percent of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.

Many of my students receive backpack food on the weekend, and our school also runs a food and clothing pantry for our families. Despite so many hardships, my students are eager to learn and do their best. They want to be in school because they want to learn all they can so they can be successful one day.

My Project

My students love to learn but find it hard to sit for a length of time to do that. Having a seat they can move on can help them be more engaged in their learning. These wobble stools will give my students a choice that may work better for them.

Everyone needs the chance to learn and focus.

Having a choice helps students make better use of their learning environment. These would be a great addition to other seating options in our classroom. Please help my students make the most of their education and learn all they can everyday this school year.
