Last year was my first year teaching and I bought most of the supplies on this list with my own money; they were used up before the school year was even over. A few things on this list such as: clip boards, dry erase boards, and scissors my class either borrowed from someone else or shared a handful that we had. We do a lot of hands-on experiments, projects, and drawing in my class! It would be a huge help if our classroom had enough supplies for each group that way students wouldn't have to waste class time waiting on someone to finish using an item. I don't want to have to tell a student this year that we are out of something they need. Additionally, our school was hit hard by the flu virus last year. I would like to have cleaning supplies on deck to keep germs down, students in class, and to be able to clean up after experiments! We greatly appreciate any help you can give us. Your contribution will ensure my students have an efficient, productive and fun year! :)
