Supplies Needed for New Housing & Interior Design Class

My students need graphing paper to learn how to layout house plans and design interiors, rulers to assist in drawing, and architect templates. I have about 100 students enrolled in this new course at our school and do not want to disappoint them by not having the proper materials needed to teach them with hands-on activities.

Ponchatoula, LA Grades 9-12

Many of my students are taking this class as a career exploration opportunity. I really would like to ensure they grasp a true understanding of what a career in the housing industry will entail. Many will be graduating at the years end, and I would like to help them find the direction needed in today's world.

This is the first time our school will offer this great course. So, we currently have no supplies :-( With over 100 students showing interest in this class, I do not want to disappoint them. I want to ensure they get proper instructional tools to use in the classroom.

So, with your help, I can furnish the supplies needed to ensure hands-on activities and learning. Graphing paper and rulers are must haves for drawing out floor plans and elevations. The architecture templates will assist them in completing the projects.

You will help my students have a better understanding of the career choices in the housing and interiors field. They will also have an advantage when farthing their education in that field. We still need all the skilled workers we can get in this area. With you help, I can prepare them to assist in the recovery effort.
