Help me give my students the supplies we need to start off a new school year!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pagano's classroom raised $679

My Project

My students come from all over the world and are eager to learn to read and write in English. My students don't necessarily have the economic means to purchase these basic supplies or are often unaware what they need to bring. The most basic of school supplies such as folders, pencils, and paper will be used to keep organized and create projects to assist in the learning of the English language.

Having the classroom essentials (paper, folders, pencils, books, grammar activities) will allow us to make the most of our learning!

This year we will be using hanging file folders to organize and hold student work. In our senior advisory, we will have students decorate folders to hold their post high school planning tools. We have class sets of some texts that reflect students identities. There are differing grammar cards and activities to use in groups. Also, in our list are some phone chargers and laptop chargers to add to our charging stations. This list holds a mixture of supplies that will help us start off our year on the right foot and develop our English language skills!
