Third Grade Matters

Help me give my students in third grade a school year where they can thrive and succeed in every area. In order to do so, I’ll need your help in order for my classroom to be successful.

My Project

I want my students and me to have a successful year. In order to do so, I’m in need of some donors

Third grade is foundational in teaching because it’s where students begin to really dive into literacy and mathematics and learn skills to help them in future upper grades.

So, I will need literacy games/cards for small groups, timers, I will also need some things to help me organize my classroom and be prepared such as mailboxes, stands, sticky notes and of course the essentials like glue, scissors and tape etc.

I believe with your help we can make a difference in every student’s outcome this school year. My students are very special to me and I want to do my best ensuring them of a successful school year with your help.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
