From year to year, I try to make my classroom visually inspiring and appealing to my students. As the years go by I noticed that personally funding for my classroom isn't in my budget as a teacher. With carpets not in such great shape, chipped paint off the walls, and bare empty space within the classroom, you can help make our classroom a brighter, warm, and creative learning space. As a 4th grade teacher I have established the theme of Superheroes! We are hoping to purchase superhero/comic lamps to help brighten the classroom, a reading rug where the students can sit, along with a bean bag to keep them comfortable while reading their favorite book. We are also hoping for two end tables for our lamps in our reading area and a teacher podium to help facilitate the students to stay on track at all times. We hope to get superhero decorations to enhance our classroom and establish our superhero theme just a little more! No matter how big or small the donation given, just know it will impact impact many students lives and their learning environment for years to come! Please help create a visually appealing classroom where it will allow my students to feel comfortable, just as if they were at home! Many of my students don't have a place where they can break down their walls and be themselves. With your help, I hope to give my students a room that they can call their safe haven.
