Focused, Organized, and Ready to Learn!

Help me give my students headphones to help us focus, folders to track our progress, and fun learning activities from Teachers Pay Teachers to make our lessons exciting!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Spinneweber's classroom raised $256

My Project

In our 4th-grade classroom, learning looks different every day — sometimes it’s quiet reading, sometimes it’s math practice on laptops, and sometimes it’s tracking our own progress toward our goals. With the right tools, my students can work more independently, stay organized, and feel proud of their growth.

We are asking for headphones so students can use educational programs without distraction, data folders so they can record their progress and reflect on their learning, and a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to provide high-quality, ready-to-use resources that fit my students’ needs.

These items will make our learning time more productive, our tracking more meaningful, and our resources more engaging.
