My Project

Hello! My name is Sarah Alldread, and I am an Inclusion/Resource Special Education Teacher. Over the past few years, my school has had an increase in student numbers. Of course, with an increase, comes more classrooms. We are not able to build and add on to our school, so that means 'grab a room where you can!'

My room is an old copy machine, coke machine, and teacher manipulative closet; measuring around 24ft x 10ft room with no central air and heat.

This room has worked perfectly for me as an Inclusion teacher, because I did not have to pull students to my office. Next year, I will be a Resource teacher and will have two groups of students coming to my room. With only me in my office, I have used a fan and a small heater; however, with students coming in and out, I am going to need central air, and this air humidifier will really help keep air circulating and clean for my students.
