This project is designed to provided students all they need in the classroom. My students deserve the best, but sometimes I need a little extra help in supporting my students. Many students in my classroom are unable to bring school supplies to school. This project will help provide students with what they need to be successful! An equipped classroom is a successful one. Both myself and my students will benefit from these supplies. From sharpies to posters to Clorox wipes, these supplies are going to optimize the learning experience for my students. Fully equipped, my students will tackle the challenging work of reading and writing. I plan to use the posters to liven up my classroom and to make it brighter and more engaging for students in order to spark their creativity, the packing tape will be used to adhere them to the wall. Snacks will be given towards the end of the day as rewards for jobs well done. Some students have confided in me that they have no food at home, giving them a snack at the end of the day will at least provide them with something before breakfast the next morning. Self-stick posters and sharpie markers will be used for both individual and group projects. Pencils, notebooks and a pencil sharpener will be used to help supply students with the materials they are unable to bring from home. Other items such as dry erase markers will be used in instruction.
