My Project

Students learn and grow when they’re able to collaborate and discuss their learning with their peers. Giving my students a clean, spacious rectangular carpet area where they can work together to investigate and engage in peer-to-peer discourse can help motivate them and assist in their learning. My students are bright, communicative, and hard-working. They love to work with partners and small groups to bounce ideas off of each other and to expand on their learning through discussion and questioning. Creating this space for them is a way I can give them one more tool to build their success.
