My Project

My diverse and creative 4th students deserve to begin their school year in a classroom that is bright and inviting! Our school does not have access to color printing, so by supporting my project you can help provide students with vibrant and engaging resources. This will also help me send home materials to families that are appealing and clear so that they can support their students at home. Additionally, the folders and notebooks will help students start off our year with the basic materials they need to learn and grow!

My goal for this project is to provide my students with an environment that is bright, exciting, and welcoming!

Having a printer, ink cartridges, laminator, posters, activities and other resources in color makes a huge impact on students learning, particularly when it comes to engagement. Thank you in advance for your support!
