My Project

This project includes snacks, decor, an organizer for our folders, and a diffuser. Our room will look good, smell good, and be full of happy learners with all of these items.

Give my students the best environment possible!

Each of these materials will contribute to my first-year teacher classroom, and allow my students to feel comfortable in our trailer room. Changing to a new area and a new grade level can be a lot of transition for young people, and having a safe, welcoming environment will help that transition.
