Third Grade Waves

Help me give my students a cozy classroom full of teamwork and learning with a rug to collaborate on while “playing” math games, stuffed animals to chill with during a teacher read aloud, and more!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Mitchell's classroom raised $596

My Project

I am switching classrooms for the third time in as many years. I want to provide my class with a calming ocean theme to create focus and kind words. Kids struggle with collaborating with others, and I want them to have a rug to relax on while they enjoy a stuffed animal to relax with.

Additionally, 3rd grade is a big year.

Students learn and grow so much. I want to give them math games to enjoy while working with small groups to gain skills lost during COVID restrictions.

Highlighters will help us learn the writing process, as these are a part of our step-up curriculum.

Sitting and reading to them after a long hot (or cold) recess would also be nice so they could calm down. I think these items would benefit my little people a great deal. Please help our classroom learn this year!
