Comfy and Fun Environment

Help me give my students brand new flexible seating and indoor recess games.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Thompson's classroom raised $368

My Project

I am going into my third year of teaching this coming school year with third grade. My first year of teaching I taught second grade and my second year I taught third grade. This school year I am transitioning to a new school and wanted to bring in new energy into my new classroom.

I want stacking stools, beanbag chairs, Brain Flakes, magnetic tiles and more to create a new and refreshing environment for my students.

Many of the flexible seating and indoor recess games that I have are missing pieces or simply not in good condition. I want to provide new items so that my students and I can have new energy in the room.

My students and I will appreciate your love in donating to our classroom.
