My Project

I am reaching out to share an exciting opportunity to enhance our classroom and create a more organized and supportive learning space for my students.

A well-structured environment is essential for fostering creativity and focus.

With your support, we can acquire some important items that will make a significant impact on our learning experience.

Project Items:

Under Desk Storage Shelf : This practical under desk shelf will help us keep our classroom organized and free from clutter. A tidy space will allow my students to concentrate better and feel more inspired to learn. Currently our students do not have a way to store items at their desk.

Gift Card for Educational Resources on TPT: This gift card will grant us access to a variety of educational materials tailored to our curriculum created by colleagues. These resources will enable us to create engaging lessons that resonate with our students.

Anxiety Sensory Stickers: These sensory stickers will provide a calming outlet for students who may need a little extra support during their day. They will help foster a nurturing atmosphere for all. In addition, these sticks will. be introduced during our science unit about the brain in the upcoming months.

Your kindness and generosity can help us cultivate a welcoming space where every student feels valued and supported. Thank you for considering contributing to our classroom project. Your support truly makes a difference!
