Results Are In: Student Scientists and Historians Need Joyful Organization

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Weidmann's classroom raised $884

My Project

I'm in my second year as a 4th grade science and social studies teacher at the school I've taught at for fourteen years, and I love it! Last year I spent time making notes for the things we need to replace in our small space. The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything through our door.

The green decor will help make room 209 shine in all its science glory.

The posters add context for motivating our inventors and history makers. The organizational bins and things will be placed on the cubby shelves in the back of our classroom and will help my ninety students to have their own space for work, running smoothly from day to day. The floor seating will give our scientists and historians space beyond their desks to explore and create and grow.

Last year there were so many items I knew would make our classroom space the best it could be that I never got around to asking for. I won't make the same mistake again this year. My students deserve to have an inspiring and interesting organized science and social studies classroom.
