New Teacher Beginnings

Help me give my students headphones, a storage cart, & classroom supplies to complete their science labs.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. D D Rader's classroom raised $768

My Project

My project is based on basic classroom supplies in a new 3rd grade classroom with a new teacher. The supplies help students complete science logs, organize data, and provide support as they complete their science journey.

This project specifically involves providing headphones and a storage cart for students to connect to their learning in a private, individualized way.

It allows students to grow and learn without the distractions of noise and competing sounds. The storage would allow a safe place for equipment to dwell.

Help my students succeed in science. Thank you.
