My Project

Hello! We are trying to make our classroom look like home! Some of our students cry to go home so we plan on bringing home to the school! We are requesting a new classroom rug and this one teaches them colors, counting, and even fractions! The refrigerator will come in handy as we will be able to better support students with diet restrictions! This will be really helpful in storing their specific food items and ensuring their needs are met. We can use the organizer for all of their extra clothes that parents send in case of an accident. Please help us! Thank you!
