Let's Get Printer Perfect!
Funded Feb 16, 2022Our color printer allowed us to print student pictures, add visuals to anchor charts and create lovely bulletin board displays. Thank you for allowing me to be able to provide vivid images to use during our daily instruction. Our Reggio inspired classroom uses only splashes of color to influence student moods, health and performance. Certain colors can capture attention, increase alertness, or create calmness. We were able to create memory books, end of year keepsakes and print pictures for families to take home at the conclusion of the school year.”

Getting Cozy In Our Classroom
Funded Sep 10, 2021Since we have been funded, the library/cozy corner center has been occupied throughout the day. To introduce student to the new and improved cozy corner, I read the social story, I Can Calm Down When I am Upset. After we read the book, I took out one thing from the calm down kit/fidget box, like a stuffed animal or something they can squeeze. We took turns pretending to be upset and squeezing the squishy to calm down. Students enjoy going there to calm down, breathe and talk to teachers about their feelings. Students love to sit on the new chairs and ask to use the pillows during nap time. My students truly find comfort in the cozy corner, it is our classroom safe zone.”
