My Project

The start of second semester means we are running low on some basic supplies. We are in need of dry-erase markers and erasers to practice our work on whiteboards, printer ink and colored paper, hot glue to hang anchor charts, and some board games to play together.

These items will allow for student success and a little fun.

Students will be able to focus more on their learning instead of worrying about not having basic supplies. In addition, this project will provide my students with the necessary materials for the day-to-day activities and work that will take place in our classroom.
