Special Education Oasis

Help me give my students an organized, calm, and welcoming space to learn.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Porterfield's classroom raised $565

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am a first year special education resource teacher at Sunnyside Elementary. I would love your help in creating an organized classroom where my students can grow and learn. I have a lot of supplies I need for my first classroom and these items would give me a great jump start on creating that calm environment where all students feel safe and have a place to learn and be themselves. Each student will have a binder with their goal work and an independent task to complete.

My students will greatly appreciate your support!
