Special Education Heros Knows Where to Start

Help me give my students an organized classroom that provides better access to learning opportunities.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Al Lami's classroom raised $189

My Project

The organization supplies will help me and my students organize specific learning materials related to their individualized education plan goals and objectives. When the students know where to find their materials once entering my classroom it would help them use their service time efficiently for learning. My caseload consists of low-income and disadvantaged students in grades k-4. My goal is to keep them calm and comfortable when coming to my room and keep them away from getting stressed about finding their personal materials. Please help my students learn to be organized.
