A Cozy And Welcoming Classroom For My Amazing Students

Help me give my students the most amazing resources to support my classroom learning and community.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Miller's classroom raised $1,353

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I will be moving classrooms for the new school year and my goal is to create a cozy and happy place for my new students. The new rug will help me set up our whole group learning space with assigned seats. The bulletin board papers will add texture and colors to the otherwise boring cork boards. The pencils, pencil organizer and pencil container will help me create a better way to organize pencils.

The wipes help me keep everything clean.

We clean tables three times a day and we go through a lot of cleaning up. The sweeper will be helpful for quick cleanups. I have an amazing group of students! They love learning and their school community.
