Soothing Surroundings Are Nuturing!

My Project

I teach a resource ELA and Math class for students with learning disabilities. In my classroom, we believe clutter causes stress, and soothing surroundings are nuturing. My group of 15 are working their hardest to transition back into a general education setting. They are determined, hard working, compassionate, and share kindness wherever they go. In order to better organize our thoughts, our minds, and clear the road to success, we would like to purchase some better storage and a standing desk for our kinesthetic learners. Please help increase our students' learning outcomes with your support

Thank you!
