My precious students are hard working, eager to please, and kind. Each comes with their own background, troubles, and knowledge. I have a wide variety of learning abilities and personalities in my class. Watching them grow, achieve their goals, learn new material, and conquer their fears is a huge part of why I love being a teacher.
Help my students beat the wiggle worm, avoid the shimmy, shimmy shakes, and the twitchy itch.
I am asking for donations to purchase flexible seating options. I want to encourage students to be comfortable in my classroom while working towards being the best they can be. Sometimes, being in a classroom seems boring and students need to wriggle to pay attention, to do their best work, and stay out of trouble.
I would also like to purchase essential items to make classroom instruction a little easier for both myself and my students. I need a dependable document camera to help those who learn best visually. Included in my wish list for class lessons would be multiple chart paper packets and a chart stand. These would aid in writing lessons so that students can write together, and benefit from teacher led instruction.
My Project
Flexible seating options will encourage students reach their potential. Help them be comfortable where they are. Spending hours in a desk and chair is difficult, even for adults. Students need the freedom to move about the class, sit where they are most comfortable, and free to make those choices when they are available and used properly.
Help me optimize each students potential by allowing them to make their own choices, and aid in my instruction making it easier for everyone to succeed.
The ELMO projector provides a real time display making handwriting instruction easier. It also simplifies teaching paragraph writing when the students and the teacher can work together. This allows the students to have a model to follow when they are doing independent writing.
Again, thank you for helping my make my classroom better.
