Classroom Basics for Colorful Learning

Help me give my students classroom basics such as paper with eye-catching colors, colorful binders for their morning work, and educational items to increase their learning, please. Thank you!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Benko's classroom raised $156

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our classroom has students with varying disabilities. They require a lot of structure as well as strategies to help them focus.

Colorful papers and binders are not only practical, but they will help keep our students motivated and continue to want to learn.

They will enjoy getting to take ownership by choosing what color binders they will get, and they will look forward to the different colored papers they will work with. The timers will help them stay on task and earn stars. Some of our students struggle with fine motor skills; the math manipulatives will set them up for success.
