My Project
In my middle school classroom, I strive to create a space where students feel safe, supported, and inspired to learn. Many students experience stress and anxiety throughout the school day, and having a calming environment can make a huge difference in their well-being. This project will provide materials such as comfortable seating, fidget tools, noise-reducing headphones, and soft lighting to help students self-regulate and focus. Additionally, I want to encourage creativity by incorporating the use of technology like presentation helpers, and podcast set up to help students learn in a different, more relevant way. With your support, we can build a classroom that nurtures both emotional well-being and creative thinking, ensuring all students feel valued and ready to learn.
