My Students

I work in a Rural School as a Special Education Resource Teacher for grades 2-3. My students come from a variety of backgrounds and are so eager to learn!

As a new classroom this year, my classroom is quite limited in resources and I would love to be able to fill my room with many of those needed resources that my kids need to succeed!

Students at my school are inquisitive, compassionate, and creative. As English language learners, books are so important to my students and are truly valued.

My students are quiet, respectful and work extremely hard in order to gain the knowledge they need to succeed.

My Project

My caseload of students is growing, and we are running out of space! My students need a bigger table to spread out and complete their work.

By giving them a larger table, they will be able to focus more on their work and be able to spread out all their materials giving them better access to manipulatives and materials.

Imagine sitting at a table, elbow to elbow, papers stacked on top of each other with only a couple of inches of space between the person next to you. Your personal bubble feels violated! You want to feel relaxed, and able to breathe!

Well, a larger table can give students those options. To relax, breathe and complete their work!
