Students Empowered to Succeed

Help me give my students a classroom management system to help create an effective and efficient learning environment.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Shair Hale's classroom raised $4,640

This project is fully funded

My Project

I love that my students are determined to succeed in school and life. They are a particular group of students who are excited about school and enjoy working as class helpers. This school year is exciting for my students; they love leadership positions in the classroom.

My students will benefit from the classroom management system because it will increase student participation and engagement.

It will also help me as an educator to set up a print-rich classroom and establish routines for planning activities to ensure my students an easy transition daily! The wall charts will help me take attendance, assign classroom helpers, post schedules and rules, and provide my students with letter cards and classroom labels to promote language development.

The Mobile Listening Center, cassette player, Early Math Instant Learning Center, and the Language Instant Learning Center, All-In-One Magnetic Writing Center will help me create productive and successful workstations to enhance students learning. The Flex-Space Independent Floor Work Space bundles will allow my students to work independently and be productive. The flexible classroom seating will inspire and motivate the students to work collaboratively, communicate, and engage in critical thinking.

The reading and math manipulatives will also help my students work on phonics and decoding skills. After all, students learn best with hands-on practice or activities. The cubby and storage bins help teach the students organization skills.
