My Project

Creating a warm, engaging classroom environment is essential for student success, and these items will help me do just that. A soft carpet in our classroom library will transform it into a cozy reading nook where students feel safe and excited to explore books. The star student chair will celebrate individual achievements, giving children a special place to sit when recognized for their hard work or kindness. The prize wheel adds an element of fun and motivation, encouraging positive behavior and academic effort. These tools will foster joy, comfort, and a sense of belonging which are key ingredients for a thriving learning space.
