My Project

Our classroom is made up of 12 unique students. Each student requires their own individualized program in order for their educational experience to be successful. To make whole group learning more engaging, individual learning desk and noise canceling headphones are needed, as learning can be distracting as everyone learns in their own way. Having these items will help us in targeting their individual needs.

We are also working on sensory areas for our students who may need time to return to a learning mindset .

We are in need of the necessary mats, desks and cushions in order to make this an area as comfortable as possible but a continual learning environment.

Everyday in our classroom is one that encourages each student to be the best leader that they can be. We encourage learning and adjust lessons to meet all of the specific needs of each student. We want to continue to encourage a worry free environment and we are asking for your help to make this possible.
