World Leaders and Learners in the Classroom

Help me give my students a clean slate classroom to inspire travel and learning about the world.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Varughese's classroom raised $326

My Project

After donating everything in my classroom to commit to 2 years in the private Christian sector, I am returning to public school for my next season of teaching. Through this project I will start my classroom over with a world learner theme with the requested ocean and world bulletin board border, table lamps, and cubby bench cushion. Your gift will help foster an environment focused on whole world education. Students will be immersed in other cultures, travels and have an open door to learn about places outside of their local circle. From language to food, holidays to landscapes. Students will feel like they’ve entered a classroom full of possibilities.
