Home Sweet Homeroom!

Help me give my students a comfortable homeroom with supplies we'll need! Things like lighting changes the mood of the classroom with small lamps. Other items we'll need are a electric pencil sharpener, dry erase makers and erasers!

My Project

I love how curious, creative, and resilient my students are. They come to school each day eager to learn, even when faced with challenges, and they thrive in a classroom environment that is warm, welcoming, and well-equipped. The lighting and lamps in this project will help create a calm, focused atmosphere where students feel comfortable and ready to engage. The classroom supplies like the pencil sharpener, dry erase markers, and erasers will support daily learning activities by helping us stay organized, prepared, and efficient during instruction. Each resource will directly support both teaching and learning, making our classroom a more effective and enjoyable place to grow.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
