My Project

About My Project

I teach in a K–4 EC resource classroom that serves students with a wide range of learning needs and abilities.

Each of my students is unique and requires a variety of hands-on materials, visual supports, and organization tools to help them thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

As I head into my second year in this role, I have a much clearer understanding of the materials needed to create a successful and engaging classroom. While I’ve built a great foundation, I still need basic and essential supplies to make sure my students have what they need to succeed every day.

This project will help me stock our room with classroom essentials like crayons, construction paper, Sharpies, index cards, and rubber bands. I’m also requesting organizational items like a rolling cart and plastic storage containers and bins to help keep student materials accessible and tidy. These small items make a big difference in helping my students stay organized and focused.

Additionally, I’m asking for a laminator and lamination paper so I can create durable visual supports, individual schedules, behavior tools, and reusable learning activities that meet the needs of all my students.

Every item on this list is chosen with intention and purpose. Your support will go directly toward making my EC resource classroom a place where students feel prepared, supported, and ready to learn. Thank you for helping me build a classroom where every learner matters!
