Rocking 5th with Roher

Help me give my students an organizer, stools, and clipboards for the resources needed to be successful in the classroom environment when we return to the traditional classroom setting.

My Students

My students are such a unique group of children, who each bring their own individual characteristics and assets. I love learning about their individual personalities and how it really impacts their learning and the classroom environment overall.

My students strive to do their best and to have a great time while doing it.

They are great listeners and really enjoy collaborative learning opportunities.

I am a first year teacher, who just finished student teaching and am really looking forward to making our room an even more enjoyable and comfortable environment for all of my students.

My Project

I am a first-year teacher aspiring to make a comfortable and successful classroom setting for my students to return back to when we go back to the traditional setting. Being a first-year teacher, I lack some of the physical materials needed to create a welcoming classroom for each and every student.

I am asking for funding towards some everyday classroom furniture to help organize and engage my students during the school day.

The organizers, stools, and clipboards will help my students become comfortable within the classroom environment. I am thriving to offer a classroom where every student can feel welcomed and safe.

Not only will these materials offer a safe and comfortable classroom, but also aid in the organization within our classroom. Some of these materials will provide a great example of how to provide an organized and structured environment.

This grant will provide some necessities that are required to achieve an organized and safe classroom for all!
