My Project

These supplies are creature comforts for my classroom: both my day students and my evening students also! These snacks, pencils, highlighters, markers, headphones, bookshelf will add the next level of resources necessary for my students, especially my evening students, to better their learning experience. I am frequently going classroom to classroom looking for headsets for learners, highlighters of various colors for learning strategies, colored pencils for annotations, Clorox wipes and even food when a student so needs. Now, I will have what I need at hand to be a better educator for every student in my care.
