My Project

Our classroom needs basic classroom necessities. As the year has begun, it seems as if we need basic supplies. The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything through our door! Please help me to provide these basic supplies to my students this year. We need pencils, pens, paper, a doorbell, a diffuser, and whiteboards. We also need colored pencils and scissors to help us to display our math masterpieces on the walls. Thanks in advance for your contribution to our classroom.
