My Project

This project will give each of my students the supplies they need to be prepared for each day. While teaching during the pandemic and the year that followed, I relied on Chromebooks and digital lessons. These were great and helped add new lessons to my units, however now it is important to go back to hands on learning.

Each student deserves to have their own personal supplies (dry erase board, markers, pencils) to help them feel prepared and ready to learn.

With this project I am hoping to give each of my students the needed supplies for our 5th grade year.
