My Project

In my classroom, organzation and comfort are essential for helping students stay focused and engaged. I am requesting funding for pocket chair covers and a computer chair to create a more efficient and inviting learning environment.

Providing pocket chair covers and a new computer chair will directly support our classroom's daily learning routines, improves students engagement, and foster greater independence.

The pocket chair will allow students to neatly store their supplies such as books, notebooks, and pencils. at their seats, promoting responsibility and reducing lost learnng time. The computer chair will provide an ergononic and comfortable seating option for our classroom computer station, helping students maintain focus during technology use.

My primary goal is to promote students organization and independence by providing each child a space to store their materials. Next, to encourage good posture, focus, and stamina during computer-based activities with a comfortable, adjustable chair.
