My Project

As a kindergarten teacher, I’m committed to creating a classroom environment where every child feels supported, engaged, and excited to learn. Right now, we’re in need of a few essential items that would make a big difference in our day-to-day learning:

Flexible seating to help young learners stay comfortable and focused during group work and independent tasks.

Headphones so students can concentrate during reading, learning games, and technology time without distractions.

A class box of crayons to ensure every child has access to the colors they need to express themselves creatively.

Writing journals to encourage early literacy and give students a space to practice writing, drawing, and storytelling.

Mesh bag storage to help keep our classroom organized and our supplies easily accessible.

Every donation—big or small—goes directly toward building a learning space that feels safe, inviting, and full of opportunity. Your support means the world to me and my students. Together, we can spark a love of learning that lasts a lifetime.

Thank you for believing in our classroom!
