Mrs. Melissa Smith from Spooner WI is requesting supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Did We Forget That?

My students need behavior rewards, cozy shades, lamination, labels, a painting protector, and a paper punch to get our classroom running smoothly.

My Students

Do you ever have that one item that you forgot to get at the grocery store? Well, that's what it feels like in our classroom. There are a few items that we're missing that would just help our classroom run more smoothly.

I have 17 bright third grade students.

They truly amaze me. They come to school each day ready to learn and ready to explore. We have over 50% free and reduced lunch. I used my classroom budget at the beginning of the year, but have now found these items that I forgot on my classroom grocery list.

My Project

All these materials will help in our every day classroom. The two that stand out as the top are the cozy shades and the behavior rewards. Our fluorescent lights are hard on our learning eyes. We already have four cozy shades, but would LOVE eight more to cover the rest of our lights. The behavior rewards will refill our reward bucket that is slowly emptying due to great behaviors and awesome choices! My students work hard each day and I like to reward them every once in awhile.

You will never regret your decision to support my classroom or my students.

They are truly one of my life's greatest joys. They make me smile, laugh, cry, and love my job. They will know your gift and appreciate it more than you could imagine.
