Organization Needed

Help me give my students an effective organized space small group reading instruction.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Simmons's classroom raised $281

My Project

I need supplies to help create a structured, organized space where my reading intervention students can stay engaged and make progress during small group instruction.

As a reading interventionist, I work with students who need extra support to build foundational literacy skills.

Many of them struggle with confidence and focus, so having the right supplies helps me create a warm, welcoming, and organized environment where they feel safe to take risks and grow.

These pocket organizers, sticky notes, and other requested tools help my students stay organized, motivated, and excited about learning—because every child deserves the chance to become a successful reader. I work with multiple small groups each day and need to keep everyone organized, from lesson materials to data collection and documentation of student growth.
