FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Christy's classroom raised $897

My Project

I want my students to know that each one of them will grow an incredible amount during their third grade year.

No matter where a student comes into my class, they will leave in the spring smarter, stronger, and wiser!

They deserve to have a room where they want to be and places they want to sit as they learn.

Flexible seating allows students to pick where they best learn and then work there as a reward. The bean bag chairs, wooden table, rocker, and cushions will help with that!

I love watching my students grow and they love to see how much they have grown throughout the year. Our classroom will reflect that with our new plants, borders, lights, and decoration sets.

Students will gain responsibility next year as they get classroom jobs (including watering our plants). They will learn that each student is unique and benefit many ways in our classroom.

A few extras we need are white boards and instax film to put our pictures on the door and see how much we grow throughout the year.
