My Students

My students are the best students there are! They are often volunteering to help each other learn. They encourage learning from both themselves and others. Each of our students is amazing at a continued growth mindset, making even large challenges seem doable.

I teach in a middle income area where a free public education is just that--free.

No one is required to bring in supplies, so sometimes we lack needed supplies to help everyday learning be both engaging and child centered.

They love art, STEM, science, and reading.

My Project

By having flexible seating in the classroom students have more choice in their learning process. Giving choices helps them learn how to make positive choices that can lead to success in the classroom. Flexible seating will give more space to do work in different areas in the classroom, not just a traditional desk. Students learn to work in a variety of places, with a variety of different students. Students will be more engaged and have more ownership in their own learning.

By donating you will help the learning environment of our classroom by giving my students more choice and ownership in their own learning.

Choices help students become 21st century learners by learning the process to make positive choices in their daily lives. Please help me fund this project.
