Tidy Up, Team Up!

Help me give my students social and creative activities to use when needing a break or after finishing their work. Help me create an inviting and organized classroom environment with extra materials for students who may need them.

My Project

The products I am requesting will help continue to create a classroom environment that my students will enjoy. The lamp creates softer lighting when the fluorescent lighting becomes too bright. Students in my class thrive with organization, and a 15-drawer rolling cart will help keep all student materials in a single, easily accessible location. Extra classroom materials will be available to students who do not have the necessary class materials.

I want to promote more opportunities for positive social interaction and engagement in my classroom.

Puzzles, large coloring posters, and card games allow students to work together and have conversations when they are finished with their work or have some extra time.
