Classroom Storage and Reset

Help me give my students a storage bench and basic supplies for a new school year reset

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Scala's classroom raised $244

My Project

I am proudly entering my eighteenth year as an educator in New York City! I am always looking for new ways to engage my students and provide high quality, individualized instruction. I never give up on a child and find ways to teach complex concepts to my students.

To help organize our classroom materials for the new year, it would be helpful to have a storage bench.

That way all materials are accessible for our students. Also, to engage our students in hands on learning, new whiteboards and markers are needed. Similarly, cardstick is needed to print out new materials and have them last for a long time.

Mrs. Scala PS 18 Winchester Grades 3-5
