My Project

My 1st grade students are truly special—they come to class each day full of curiosity, creativity, and a bright eagerness to learn. Many of them face challenges outside the classroom, but their determination and enthusiasm never waver.

Having the right school supplies will make a huge difference in their learning by helping them stay organized, focused, and confident as they explore new skills.

With these tools, we can work toward important goals like improving handwriting, practicing early reading and math skills, and expressing creativity through art and writing. These supplies will not only support their academic growth but also inspire a love for learning that will carry them throughout their school years and beyond.

There are also the necessary hygiene needs. Having these supplies will help me be able to use the money I usually spend on these items go towards other things that will make out school year truly special!
