Furniture Makeover Project

Help me give my students a nurturing and inspiring environment, enhancing the overall preschool experience for my students.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. De Paz's classroom raised $1,167

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

By donating to our "Furniture Makeover Project" you will be helping me create a warm and inviting environment that will greatly benefit my preschool students. The classroom rug will provide a comfortable and defined space for group activities, fostering a sense of togetherness and learning through play. Picture frames will add a personal touch to the decor, allowing me to display students' artwork and creating a sense of ownership in their learning space. Filing dividers will help keep materials organized and accessible.

The water bottle cart ensures hydration is easily accessible for my students.

Pillowcases will introduce a cozy and comforting element, making the classroom feel like a home away from home. The oil diffuser will infuse the room with calming scents, fostering a serene atmosphere for learning. Pocket charts for classroom jobs and schedules will empower students by involving them in classroom management and time management, instilling a sense of responsibility.

Altogether, these items will transform my classroom into a nurturing and inspiring environment, enhancing the overall preschool experience for my students.

Thank you for your support :)
