My Project

Let me introduce you to my class of awesome, energetic, and curious learners. They’re a one-of-a-kind group that brings joy and creativity to every lesson. But let’s be real—keeping a class full of busy minds and wiggly bodies on track is no small task! That’s where YOU come in to help us reach our goals.

We’re requesting binders, chair pockets, and flexible seating options to create a learning environment that supports every student.

Here’s how these items will make a big difference:

Binders: These will help my students organize their notes, projects, and assignments, building skills like responsibility and independence (bonus: no more missing homework papers!).

Chair pockets: These magical organizers give students a place to store their supplies right on their chairs, cutting down on desk clutter and lost materials.

Flexible seating: For my wigglers who just can’t sit still, having options like wobble cushions or stools will help them channel that energy into focus and engagement. Everyone learns better when they feel comfortable!

What makes my students special? They’re resilient, hardworking, and full of potential. Many of them face challenges outside the classroom, but they show up every day with bright smiles and a hunger to learn. My goal is to create a space where they can thrive, feel supported, and grow into confident, capable learners.

Your support will help us finish this year strong and set us up for success next year. Thank you for being part of our journey—together, we’re making a difference!
