My Students

Hello! I am a third grade teacher at a small elementary school in a rural community. Many of the students I work with come from a low-income area and are limited in their experiences. A good portion of my students come from broken homes, live with grandparents, or have gone through things no child should have to experience. Some have been forced to grow up and take on adult responsibilities.

My focus each day is to make my students feel safe, comfortable and loved when they enter my classroom.

When my students enter my room each day I see the excitement in their eyes and I want to ignite their love for learning. These boys and girls have so much potential and when given the opportunity to learn in a comfortable environment. I know they will succeed!

My Project

A good portion of my math and literacy blocks are center based with my students working independently for about 30 minutes. Currently in my classroom their only choice of seating is in their chair at the table. I have found that my students are not engaged in their work, due to being stuck sitting where they sit for whole group instruction.

Flexible seating will allow my students to take charge of their learning and make choices appropriate for them.

Throughout the day, during independent work time, students will have the opportunity to choose a location around the room that works best for them. I am requesting wobble chairs and cushions, floor seats, and lap desks. My hope is that students will be more engaged in their work and less disruptive when given the choice of where to work.
