My Project

A warm and welcoming environment plays a big role in a successful school year. A nurturing learning space requires organization and inviting decor. Students will feel positive and motivated during the year with the necessary supplies.

An organized classroom creates a better space for learning.

Students benefit from having access to pencils in a case to keep their binders organized. They will stay motivated by the weekly rewards such as fun erasers, fidget toys, and candy.

Teachers will benefit from classroom supplies such as cleaning materials, paper, and fun decor.

Ms. Ross Intermediate School 181 Pablo Casals Grades 6-8
