My Project

As we're in the second half of our year, we need more supplies to help get us through!

My students and I are needing a few different school supplies to have a successful rest of the school year!

We need a few staplers and staples. We use our staplers quite a bit, and they do not last very long in the classroom. I'd love to be able to have a few extras in case one break, wears out, etc. I also use staplers to attach my students' work to the walls!

We are beginning to run low on our dry-erase markers. I write daily on the class whiteboard. The Crayola Take Note markers are the best! They do not have an odor and are pretty pigmented, so even at the back of the room, students can read what is on the board!

Scissors are another item that we really need. We use them a lot for different assignments. Having full-sized scissors for my middle schoolers is definitely a big deal! They can't fit their fingers in the small scissors.

Finally, we need a big refresh on our highlighters! We highlight quite a bit to mark up the texts we are reading and identify the different portions of our responses for peer editing and essays. We've been running low on our highlighters, and I'd love to get more.

Thank you for being willing to support our classroom! It truly means the world to me!
