My Project

It is important that my students feel a sense of home in our classroom. I believe when students feel at home, they are more relaxed and ready to tackle the day. As a special needs classroom, I worked really hard to help students feel comfortable in our classroom environment.

I would like a small refrigerator that the kids can use.

A small refrigerator will give my students a place to store their water in warmer weather. Water is an essential part of the learning process. Keeping the brain hydrated helps students stay fluid academically throughout the day. We would also like to store treats such as popsicles used as valuable incentives for academic efforts and treats that can be purchased with their classroom economy points. Thank you for your support!
