My Project

These items on our wishlist will help to make our middle school Autistic Support classroom a welcoming space to learn and grow. I love how my students are excited to learn! They are happy to be in school each day! The smiles on their faces will brighten everyone’s day!

This welcoming classroom environment can have a significant, positive impact on student learning.

Our classroom will feel like a home away from home. When the students walk into their beautiful classroom, they will feel motivated to learn each day and ready to put their best foot forward.

Studies show that a a well-designed classroom can enhance engagement, promote creativity, foster collaborative learning, and improve academic achievement.

A classroom rug, tent, cushion and a bean chair will give the students an area to feel comfortable in. The bulletin board paper and string lights will help give the classroom a more welcoming feel to it! The dustpan and broom will help keep our beautiful classroom clean!

Please help us have an amazing start to the school year!
