Crafts and a Classroom Upgrade!

Help me give my students some awesome craft supplies. We can have materials to do craft projects and fountains for a calming atmosphere. Some new desk chairs for me and a device to take notes will be useful.

My Project

Students will love having laminating pouches to make their crafts "final". Having fountains helps create a calming atmosphere to help students feel safe and ready to learn. A photo digital album will promote students' work to help students feel proud it is on display, as well as having their families' photos too. I need new chairs for my small group table and desk. The paper tablet will help me assess students and to take notes along with help yield in growth in professional development. Dot markers will be for BINGO and the heavy duty tape I use for posters on my brick walls in the classroom. The fake plants will be used in the classroom to cover some of the windows to hide recess distractions going on outside. The lava lamp will be our "class pet" since we cannot have one and I know students will love it!

Students will love this updated classroom and are always excited for something new.

I know this will make students feel loved and excited to learn. Thanks for your consideration!
