My Project

My second-grade students are curious, creative, and eager to learn every day. To help them succeed, we need classroom essentials like a laminator and laminating sheets to create durable learning materials that can be reused all year. We also need crayons, markers, paper, pencils, folders, dry erase supplies, and classroom snacks to support hands-on learning and keep students engaged. These resources will be used daily during whole-group lessons, small-group instruction, independent practice, and learning centers. Having these materials readily available will allow me to prepare engaging activities, protect important classroom resources, and ensure every student has the supplies they need to participate confidently. Your generosity will help create a welcoming classroom where every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and reach their full potential.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
