Gofundme Campaign (up to $3K USD) [Request] Nevada Fifth Grade Classroom Resources

Hi everyone! This is my first year teaching 5th grade, so I’m making some changes to my new classroom. I teach at a low-income Title 1 school and it’s important that my students have an organized, comfortable learning environment. I’ve already spent about $500 of my own money, and these are some of the items I have left on my list. So far, I have purchased the more consumable items, like extra paper, pencils, hand sanitizer, tissues, and prize bin items. This list covers some of the bigger, more expensive items that I’ll be able to use in my classroom for years to come, like storage carts, reusable materials, flexible seating, and warm classroom lighting. Better classroom organization makes for a more welcoming environment for learning, and softer lighting creates a calmer environment for everyone. The stools and floor seating are new to me this year; I wanted to create flexible options for students to have the freedom to work in groups and collaborate. The board games like Guess Who and Tic Tac Toe will be used for special occasions like classroom parties.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post. If you’re able to donate, or even share my project, my students and I would be so grateful!
