I teach in a rural Title I (high poverty) school where most children receive free or reduced price lunch. My students have limited educational opportunities outside of school. Many have never visited a public library, have no internet access at home, and have never been to a museum.
My students learn quickly they are not in your average classroom. We do things a little differently and the room itself is atypical. We have a treehouse, a tent, a picnic table, bean bag chairs, and a full-size tree–cardboard and paper, but still a tree. My goal has been to create a student-friendly, fun learning environment. (Happy students are learning students.) This year, we’ve ditched the desks in favor of tables. Some are high where students stand when working and others are low where students sit on the floor. They love them.
My students need lap desks (20), individual folding activity tables (5), and floor cushions (6) so they can work anywhere. The lap desks are available locally at $10.00, tables at $15.00, and cushions at $20.00. The total cost is $395.00.
Update: You met our goal and then some within the first two days! Whatever turns out to be more than requested I will put towards similar items (sensory balance disks, for example) and our classroom library.
Many thanks to everyone who supported this project. You are very much appreciated.
