Back-to-School Essentials!

Help me give my students a few things to get the new year started!

My Project

Starting a new school year means making sure my students have the tools they need to learn, create, and feel successful from day one. These back-to-school essentials will help me prepare a welcoming and functional classroom for my 5th graders.

Older students need sturdy, appropriately sized scissors that are comfortable and safe for classroom projects.

Erasers are another everyday essential that quickly disappear throughout the year as students work through math, writing, and other assignments.

I am also requesting matte spray to reduce the glare on laminated posters and classroom resources. This will make important visuals easier for students to see and use without distracting reflections from classroom lights.

Finally, a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card will allow me to purchase engaging math centers and activities that provide students with meaningful opportunities to practice skills, work collaboratively, and build confidence in math.

These simple supplies will make a big difference in keeping our classroom prepared, organized, and ready for a successful school year!
