Help me give my students basic supplies such as paper, pencils, crayons, markers and worksheets!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Spitz's classroom raised $281

My Project

I am an occupational therapist, and I work with students ranging in age from kindergarten to eighth grade. We work on improving various skills, including fine motor skills, handwriting, visual perceptual skills, problem solving skills, and following directions. We learn about all different topics such as STEM, money skills, life skills, community integration, etc...

We need to replenish our basic supplies in order to complete our sessions successfully!

Therefore, I am requesting paper, pencils, crayons, markers, and stickers. I am also requesting a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card so that I can purchase new and exciting worksheets for my students according to their interests!
