My Project

Imagine a classroom where every child feels comfortable, engaged, and empowered to learn. In my first-grade classroom, I aim to create a dynamic learning environment that meets the diverse needs of my students—young learners who thrive when they have the freedom to move, choose, and focus in their own way.

Flexible seating options like floor seats will allow my students to:

- Stay focused and engaged by providing movement-friendly seating.

- Feel empowered with choices that suit their learning styles.

- Build a sense of ownership over their learning environment.

Many of my students come from diverse backgrounds and may face challenges outside of school. By providing flexible seating, you’ll help me create a welcoming and inclusive classroom that nurtures their creativity and helps them succeed.

Your donation will directly fund these seating options, making a lasting impact on the lives of these first graders. Let’s work together to create a classroom that sparks joy and supports every learner!

Will you help us create a classroom where every child can thrive?
