Mrs. Walls from Oklahoma City OK is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Growing Our Way to a Positive Mindset!

Help me give my students a warm classroom after being without a teacher for most of the year. Adding things like a rug, posters, and books will help my classroom be more welcoming.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I was just recently moved to a new classroom where the previous teacher had been absent a lot due to sickness. The students had been neglected and missed out on a lot of instruction. My goal is to give my new students a warm and welcoming classroom. I want to make sure I have all of the supplies they need like pencils, paper, markers, notecards to make flashcards,books, and informative posters to hang on the walls.

My main goal is to get my students caught up and make sure they're successful in their learning journey!
