2nd Graders 2016 Back to School Supplies Needed!

My students need copy paper and crayons to make important and wonderful lessons. The kids will love the treasure box incentives to keep working hard. And the Swiffer wet jet will help us have a clean work area.

My Students

Our students come from the inner city. The are good children and they are eager to learn. Many students come from challenging backgrounds and they depend on school to be a safe and important part of their day. Our students receive free breakfast and lunch.

Our students are in serious need of many school related items.

The students are kind and compassionate. They work and play well together. Most importantly they believe in community and they love school. New supplies will help them on their way.

My Project

These new school supplies will help second graders start off the new year with flying colors. Adequate paper and crayons are essential when working with young children. These supplies including the lollipop candy and a treasure chest provide incentives and rewards for achievement.

Using a swiffer wet mop and other cleaning supplies will ensure that we have a very clean work area.

Cleaning supplies also help to keep the white board fresh and clean.

In addition, students always seem to need a band-aid. It is much better to quickly offer one instead of sending a student out of the room.
