Hooray for Second Grade!

Help me give my students materials for a great first semester of second grade!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Rafely's classroom raised $941

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

Help me give my students school supplies, social-emotional toys, and an organized classroom on their first day back!

My incoming class is very wiggly; so the plushies, calming breathing puppy, timers, and chew-on toys will help my kids regulate their behaviors and emotions.

I will be teaching them several SEL strategies and these tools will help make my job easier!

The fan will help keep my students cool while learning, while items such as headphones and sharpeners will ensure they have the tools to learn. The rotating bookshelf will help organize my new set of decodable books. The line up numbers will help keep things running in an orderly fashion.
