My Project

My students are bright, creative, and full of curiosity. To help them thrive, I’m requesting a few essential items that will support both their academic and emotional growth in the classroom.

The futon will be a game-changer — creating a cozy, calming spot where students can relax, read, reset, or just feel safe.

It will be a special space that brings comfort to our classroom every single day.

The LEGO sets, modeling clay, and markers will fuel creativity and hands-on learning, giving my students a chance to express themselves and build with excitement. And the snacks will help keep their minds and bodies nourished so they can stay focused and ready to learn.

Each of these resources will help create a

classroom environment where my students feel safe, supported, and inspired to learn. Thank you for helping us grow together — one marker, or one snack at a time.
