Setting Up for Success

Help me give my students some basic supplies, flexible seating, and bright classroom organizers.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Russell's classroom raised $346

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students will love using this cozy classroom library rug and these bright stools at our small group table. The colorful bins, dry erase boards, and pencil sharpeners will give them the tools they need to stay organized and ready to learn. The reading anchor charts, and classroom rule posters will assist in cultivating our classroom community of learners.

Bright and cozy flexible seating, along with colorful organizers will help my students feel comfortable in their home away from home.

My students are curious, hardworking, and kind children who love to explore new topics and deepen their understanding as they collaborate with their classmates.
