My Project

Pencils in a middle school have a way of disappearing and finding an adequate pencil sharpener that survives a busy school year is challenging. Providing students with access to the most basic of materials is a must.

Our Language Arts classroom needs Enday #2 Bulk Pencils, Bic Mechanical Pencils, X-ACTO Electric Pencil Sharpener, School Smart Cap Erasers, Maped Handheld Pencil Sharpener, and Sharp and Dull Pencil Buckets to keep students writing and learning.

It is important and vital to give students the right materials they need as developing readers and writers
