My Project

In our classroom, fostering social-emotional learning (SEL) and literacy is essential for student growth and development. This project aims to enhance our learning environment by providing a diverse selection of SEL books, CVC word practice materials, and essential classroom organization tools. Additionally, we seek to acquire headphones and teacher tools that will support individualized learning experiences and improve classroom management. With these resources, we can create a nurturing and engaging atmosphere that empowers every student to thrive academically and emotionally. Your support will make a significant difference in our students' educational journey!

Ms. Lewis Mauro-Sheridan Sci-Tech-Comm Grades 3-5
