My Project

The items in this project will help to provide students in my 2nd grade classroom with a safe, comfortable, and inclusive place to learn. I am requesting a bright and inviting carpet for all students to have a personal space in the classroom meeting area. I am also requesting some flexible seating options to help create a cozy space in my classroom library to invite students to read. I aim to promote a love for reading and can do so by offering a welcoming space in the classroom library.

It is my goal to create a welcoming environment, that allows each student to learn comfortably.

I greatly appreciate your support!

Ms. DiCrescento PS 131 Abigail Adams Grades PreK-2
