My Project

As a first-year public preschool teacher, I’m incredibly excited to welcome my students—ages 3 to 5—into a warm, inclusive learning environment! Our classroom will be full of energy, creativity, and a wide range of developmental needs, and my goal is to create a space that feels calm, predictable, and engaging for every child.

This project is focused on organization.

With your support, I hope to provide colorful storage bins and supplies that will help keep our toys, art materials, and learning tools neatly organized and easily accessible at the children’s level. I will be teaching them how to use and maintain this organized space with clear labels and routines—helping foster independence while reducing stress for both the students and myself.

All of the requested materials will be used throughout the year—and for years to come—to ensure our classroom remains a joyful and functional place to learn and grow.

Your support would mean the world to us. Thank you so much for considering a contribution!
