Tools to Keep Us Learning and Growing

Help me give my students the tools to stay organized, creative, and ready to learn every day.

Ms. Lucas PS 299 Thomas Warren Field

Brooklyn, NY Grades 3-5

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our classroom thrives when students are organized, creative, engaged and connected.

This project will provide magnetic hooks and file holders to display charts and organize materials, making resources more accessible.

Colorful folders and communication folders will help students manage their work and keep families informed. Glue sticks and sticky notes will support hands-on learning and group activities. These simple tools will make a big difference in helping students stay focused, work independently, and take pride in their learning. Thank you for helping and supporting us build a well-organized, student-centered classroom!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
