Mrs. Bellassai Creekside Elementary School

Winterville, NC Grades PreK-2

My Project

My students are 20 kindergarteners who have developed a strong love for learning through hands on, engaging and rich experiences. Additionally, with the help of interventions and small groups our students are learning!

With small groups in mind, the horseshoe table, stools, and chair will give students a chance to engage and interact with their teachers in more hands-on tasks.

It allows our teachers to be more involved with the teacher being in the center of the learning with closer proximity when it comes to reading, writing and math instruction.

I hope that by receiving this table students and teachers will feel more in tune and engaged. Students can interact easily with others and their teachers. Teacher will be able to assist and help students easier with teachers being the center and focal point. Additionally, the ease of accessing materials, space and ease of modeling for students will be extremely beneficial.
