My Project

An awesome school year starts with a great classroom environment, classroom resources and a well prepped teacher!

Please assist me with getting some long lasting essential classroom resources for a teacher on a budget.

All of these resources have a purpose to be continuously used over the years that I continue to teach.

A printer and laminator are an essential resource for me as I print all of my classroom decorations and laminate them for long term use. I would also use my printer and laminating to create materials for my small group, centers, fast finisher activities, and to print worksheets.

Additionally, I have been trying to get a classroom rug and some yoga chairs balls since I started teaching for more intimate instruction time and to increase flexible seating choices within my classroom. I also want to eliminate some desks in my classroom and allow some scholars to choose their seat for the day.

Thanks to all of the donations that I have received from some parents, family, and friends. Therefore, I am trying to use this summertime to make some necessary classroom purchases.
