Mrs. T. Lone Star Elementary School
Jacksonville, FL Grades 3-5

I teach English Language Arts in third grade to two classes with 30 students in each class. I have 9 students with a learning disability in the morning class and 9 in the afternoon class. The school where I teach is a public school of moderate poverty level. I teach amazing students whom many of just need to be taught how to believe in themselves. I have a great job!

Do you want to be organized but just don't have the tools to do so? Well, this is how my third graders feel! In our classroom of 30 in the morning and 30 in the afternoon finding work is becoming harder and harder! The morning students share desks with the afternoon students and no one has a space there is just theirs to house their assignments.

We are in desperate need of seat sacks for the backs the chairs. These sacks will fit right on the back of the chair allowing the afternoon class a place to keep materials. These will allow students a place to take good care of all their great work!

We value every moment of our learning time and would rather spend it engaged in a good book rather than searching for this week's spelling words. My 30 students want to be organized they just don't have the means to do so at this time. They would love the ability to find their work without frustration or looking like it is yesterday's newspaper. Please help us! Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!
