4th Grade Dream Room Makeover

Help me give my students a classroom that feels like home but cooler!

Ms. Avery Freedom Trail Elementary School
Elk Park, NC Grades 3-5

My Project

Starting in a new grade level this year comes with many challenges especially going from lower grades to an older grade, my goal is to not only encourage my students that learning is still “cool” but also to help them feel like if they have no safe space anywhere else, then my classroom is their safe space! Through needed supplies (such as a new classroom set of markers, crayons, binders, a turn in mailbox, bulletin board paper, books, post it paper, scissors, bulletin boarders, pencils, dry erase wipes, as well as teacher supplies, that includes label tape and lamination paper, organizational furniture, and a few cool neon signs and lights, I hope that we can find fun in learning and I hope my students truly enjoying entering my classroom each day ready to learn! All of this stuff is a necessity for our daily classroom success.
