These items will provide my students with an organized, functional classroom. The paper organizers will be used to organize worksheets needs for lessons. The manipulatives and resources in this project will help me target student learning and needs. The magnetic manipulatives will be used to teach concepts to the whole group. Having these magnetic manipulatives can help me model and explain without having to find a specific object. It will all be on the board for the students to see and reference. The crayons are a major need in my classroom. We use crayons to represent math equations and projects in our science lessons. In our classroom, crayons are a big part of students' creativity. By donating to our class, you will be giving us an organized and creative classroom that will encourage our students' learning. With all the school supplies having a space in the classroom, students will be able to easily access supplies. Our lesson will run smoother and focus on meaningful learning.
