Reading Center for Special Education Classroom

My students need an area to access books. Our classroom lacks space and furniture. The Flex-Space Mobile Storage Bin Center will help to create a reading environment my students deserve!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Boyle's classroom raised $789

My Students

I work for the Worcester Public School System. My classroom is self-contained catering to students who have severe learning disabilities in reading and in Math. Our classroom is made up of 8 students with very diverse needs. Instruction is individualized to their specific needs. However, resources are very limited. There have been district-wide cut backs, leaving it extremely difficult to acquire the necessary supplies for my Special Education Students. Students are lacking the materials they need and deserve to be successful. Your donations would be going to the most amazing group of students!

My Project

At this time my Special Education classroom does not have a reading area accessible to my students. There is one tall shelf in the classroom where books are stored, making if impossible for the students to get a book on their own. This storage bin center will help to create an area for students to access books at their level independently. Moreover, I want to create an environment that allows my students to navigate with ease. They face many challenges daily, the classroom should not be one of them.

Please help me to create the reading center my students deserve!
