My Project

The students I work with are still working to master foundational literacy skills, such as phonics and vocabulary. They are passionate about learning and becoming stronger readers, but our learning space needs improvements. My 4th-8th grade students meet in my office space in small groups during our academic coaching block. The items I am requesting will make a huge difference for students by adding seating options for growing kids and a reliable way to ensure the room temperature is optimal for learning. We would be so thankful to be able to outfit our learning space ASAP!
