FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Dixon's classroom raised $290

My Project

My students are middle schoolers navigating a tech-rich, fast-paced learning environment where curiosity and creativity drive our STEAM projects. But with all the robotics components and MakerSpace materials, staying organized is a challenge!

When students can independently locate materials, they gain confidence and take ownership of their learning.

We’re seeking organizing tools to create a functional and inviting classroom where students can easily find what they need, store their materials, and focus on learning. The binders will organize our 3Doodler stencils and troubleshooting tips for the Hummingbird robotics kits. The bins will hold the 3D pens and filament in one convenient location. The charging center and silicone trays will allow all the hot glue materials to be centrally located for ease of use.

These resources will help students prioritize creating, problem-solving, and collaborating. Your donation will not only bring order to our space but will empower students to build, create, and thrive in a classroom that’s Sorted for Success!
