Amazing integrated class of special education and general education, is in desperate need of organization to proceed to the next grade.

Everybody talks about having stress in their lives, including students. They are accountable every single day for succeeding in English Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies as well as tests and homework. These students have folders and notebooks for each subject, and need to be able to transit from subject to subject within minutes of a bell. These are hard working students in a title one school, where supplies are an issue, as parents have very little money. My students are in great need of an area to place their work and keep it organized. Too many books and papers get lost, and we would be so grateful if someone would help.

If someone were able to help us obtain a reading and writing center used for organization, that the students could easily reach, that would mean the world to them. No more messy desks where students waste ten minutes trying to find their notebooks for the next subject. They become so frustrated when they can't find the paper that belongs in the folder that they placed in their desk the day before.

My students are hoping somewhere out there a person is listening and understanding. We all remember how hard children work to succeed and all the obstacles they face today. If someone could help organize their work by sending us this work center, the children would have an even better chance of success. Please help this integrated class, and fulfill their wish. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
