4th Graders Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!

Help me give my students multi-purpose clipboards, dry-erase markers, and reusable dry-erase pockets.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sugimoto's classroom raised $454

This project is fully funded

My Project

This school year our 4th graders teamed up with Hawaii Wildlife Fund in their efforts to educate our Keiki about marine debris and its direct impact on our Hawaiian islands and wildlife.

Help my students extend their learning to reduce, reuse, and recycle single-use plastics along with other single-use items like note paper.

These reusable whiteboard pockets and multipurpose clipboards are also functioning on-the-go whiteboards and chalkboards in place of single-use scratch paper. To go with these whiteboards we are also asking for dry-erase markers and pom poms to use as erasers instead of facial tissue.

Ms. Sugimoto can also lead by example by replacing single-use post-its with these reusable ones!
