My Project

Hip Hip Hooray! For the first time in my teaching career I have a classroom. With that said there is lots to be done. I want to create a interactive space that promotes learning and is a safe, comfortable environment for students. A space that belongs to them and they have a desire to return to everyday.

On this list you will find a variety of items such as furniture, headphones, books and science lab supplies.

I am hopeful with your help this year I can ignite a curiosity of learning science.

As a special education teacher having the correct tools are imperative to effective instruction. I thank you in advance for your generosity and care. As well as the overwhelming support you are giving me!
