Basics For An Organized Counseling Classroom

Help me give my students supplies to create visual aids and organize the counseling classroom into a supportive and accessible space.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Allison's classroom raised $318

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our counseling classroom is in desperate need of basic supplies to help us have a strong school year. We need paper for printing social emotional learning activities and laminating sheets for visual aids. The plastic bins will allow us to ensure that sensory tools and therapy toys will be easily accessible to students. The files, pocket chart, and folders will help us keep our individualized student worksheets and trackers organized. This will support staff in continually monitoring our students' progress towards their social emotional goals. We use post-it notes for everything imaginable. These supplies will especially support our students with speech and language impairments and executive functioning challenges who benefit from clear organization and labeled items.
