My Project

In my 4th-grade classroom, I strive to cultivate a love for learning and curiosity that lasts a lifetime. I'm seeking support to transform our learning space into a dynamic hub of creativity.

Wobble Stools:

One priority is adding some wobble stools for small group work. Wobble stools offer an active seating solution, promoting better focus, improved posture, and catering to diverse learning styles. They allow students to move discreetly, enhancing participation in the learning process.

Interactive Games for Reading and Math:

Interactive games for reading and math reinforce concepts while making learning fun. These games nurture critical thinking skills and a positive attitude toward education.

Art Supplies for Creativity:

Colorful tools like markers, crayons, and scissors empower students to express themselves visually and help develop fine motor skills,

Scholastic News Subscription:

A Scholastic News subscription brings current events and non-fiction articles into the classroom. This resource improves reading comprehension, encourages discussions about the world, and fosters critical thinking skills.

Thank you for considering this project and for your commitment to the future of our community's young minds.
