Warm & Welcoming: a Classroom That Feels Like Home

Help me give my students a classroom that is nurturing, inviting, and comfortable. These classroom items seem simple, but it’s the little comforts that make all the difference. After all, a classroom is a home away from home!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Romero's classroom raised $678

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

These precious third graders will feel right at home with these thoughtful classroom items including a rug, flexible seating and some classroom basics.

In a home, it’s the little touches that bring warmth and comfort.

It’s important to me to provide that same sense of comfort for my students in their classroom.

I want every child to love their classroom so that it inspires them while learning. These items will help the students learn because they will feel comfy, safe and secure. Thank you for helping to provide that environment for my students!
