My Project

I love that my students are eager to learn, and each of them brings a unique personality to our classroom. Our DonorsChoose project will help create a cozy, calm, and welcoming space where every student feels supported. Sensory tools like fidgets and slime, along with a bean bag chair, will provide comfort during calming moments. Magnetic tiles will encourage creativity, while stools will support safe small-group learning. Reading and math games, including sight word and subtraction bingo, will keep students engaged while building important skills. These materials will help our classroom thrive!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
