My Project

I am a fourth grade teacher in. I have this amazing opportunity of growing the minds of some awesome children.

An organized classroom will help my student's thrive.

Quite often you will find students stuffing papers in their desk or stating they cannot find their homework. I would like a mailbox so my students can just pick up graded homework, announcements and other papers that need to go home in their backpacks.

I also have a calming/cozy corner within my classroom. I would like to add the bean bag as well as provide my students with snacks.

These items will assist making our classroom a home where students thrive and learn.
