My Project

I am a Third Grade Special Education teacher in a school that consists of culturally and linguistically diverse students.

I moved into a new classroom last year that was used for storage and has no storage, no bookshelves and no closets!

I would like to create an organized, neat and inviting classroom for my students without having to live and teach out of plastic boxes.

Having these metal cabinets would enable to create an inviting and neat classroom for my students and make them feel welcome.

I would be able to neatly put all our classroom supplies into these cabinets.

This would also enable me to encourage my students' responsibility and independence. If they needed a pencil, notebook, eraser, any art supply etc., all they would need to do was go to the cabinet and take what they needed.

This would be a dream for me as a teacher!

Thanking you in advance for helping me to help my amazing students!

Ms. Zahnijnyj PS 106 Parkchester Grades 3-5
