My Project
Hi friends! I’m preparing for my very first year of teaching 4th grade at a Title I school, and I am working hard to create a classroom where all students feel supported, engaged, and ready to learn.
The resources I have requested, such as storage solutions, flexible seating, hands-on learning tools, and essential materials, will directly support my students in building organization, collaboration skills, and independence.
For example, math manipulatives and science tools will be used during lessons to help students explore concepts in a concrete way. Clear storage bins and labeled systems will help students take ownership of classroom routines.
My goal is to build a space that promotes curiosity, creativity, and community. With your help, these resources will bring lessons to life and ensure that every student has access to the tools they need to succeed. Thank you so much for supporting our classroom and our future!
