Calm, Clean, and Focused

Help me give my students classroom essentials such as sensory headphones, tissues, and disinfectant.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Humowitz's classroom raised $180

My Project

In our music room, staying calm, clean, and focused is key to creating a safe and successful learning environment. My musicians work hard each day to do their best, but sometimes they face challenges that make it difficult to concentrate or feel comfortable. To help them thrive, I'm requesting sanitizing wipes, hand sanitizer, tissues, and sensory headphones.

These essential items will support the physical and emotional well-being of my students.

Sanitizing wipes and hand sanitizer will help keep our classroom clean and germ-free (because let's face it, it's getting to be the germiest time of the year). Tissues are a small but crucial comfort, giving students the ability to take care of themselves without missing out on music time.

The sensory headphones will be especially valuable for my students who become easily overwhelmed by noise, such as when we play musical games or instruments.

By supporting this project, you're helping me to create a classroom that feels safe, comfortable, and focused--one where every student can perform to the best of their abilities. A clean space and a calm mind go hand in hand, and with your help, we can provide both for our musicians every single day.
