Compassion is in Session

Help me give my students a successful, fun school year by considering a donation to our classroom for an area rug and book bins.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Louis's classroom raised $1,164

My Project

When students are aware that they are having fun or even getting rewarded for their efforts, they study and behave nicely. My goal is to improve my classroom so that it is a cozy, enjoyable place to learn. I want to continue setting up and furnishing my classroom as a new teacher to give my pupils a homey atmosphere. I am requesting a classroom rug, bookcase, and book bins. Additionally, they frequently misplace their computer accessories, such as headphones or log-in credentials. So that they don't lose important supplies, I'm also working on collecting items for them to keep organized like a pocket organizer, storage baskets, and an organizational cart. We have a motto in our classroom: "Work hard, play hard." The children I teach are incredibly vivacious individuals who want to study hard and then have fun. After a demanding work week, they deserve to get enjoyable incentives and prizes.
