Mrs. Collier's First Classroom

Help me give my students a great year with supplies including floor cushions, a crayon sharpener, books, an easel, games and basic classroom supplies to make our classroom a place that we can truly learn.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Collier's classroom raised $693

My Project

This is my first year of teaching, and I am very excited. I have included floor cushions to help students with individual study times. This gives them the freedom to spread out and move away from their desks. The markers, crayon sharpener, and paper help the students be creative in their work. The books are to help with creating a library for them to explore and find new reads. There are games that the students can play during indoor recess.

I know that there are many things that are needed in a classroom, and I know I need some help getting them all.

I want my students to know from the moment that they walk into the room that it is a safe place. They will be spending a lot of time there, and I want them to be comfortable and ready to learn when they walk into the classroom.
