My Project

Hello Everyone

I am currently a Social Studies teacher in an elementary school setting.

I don't have my own classroom where I can house abundant supplies to make my lessons more hands-on and engaging. I teach grades K,3-5 so I have to travel a lot throughout the day from room to room. If I had a substantial cart like the one I am asking for, it would be like a traveling classroom for my students filled with all the necessary materials they would need in their studies.

Thank you.

Ms. Xerras PS 22 Thomas Jefferson Grades 3-5
