We Learn Better When We Stay Focused
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. MacDonald's classroom raised $435
This project is fully funded
My Project
I work with an amazing group of students who come to school each day ready to learn and with big smiles! They are eager and enthusiastic, but easily veer off the path because of talking or other activities around them.
Our students sometimes struggle to remain focused on their lessons because of the distractions around them. We will use the exercise balls as flexible seating to help with attentiveness. We will use the headphones and calming lighting to help with self-control and self-regulation when working independently. Our students can do wonderful work when they have these accommodations.
I would love to get them all set up for success by having the tools and resources they need to have fun, productive school days.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
