My Project

Please help me give my students new clean whiteboards and all the supplies that go with them. We also need new dice and more paper towels.

We have been out of paper towels as a school for over a month now, but even when we have the ones provided by the school, they are never able to actually pick up a spill.

We would love to replenish our supply of paper towels, and also have a place for our paper towels to go, hence the paper towel holders.

We are also in need of dice for our math and spelling games.

The whiteboards are needed because we are currently using a set I purchased over 5 years ago. They have writing on the backs of them, they are dirty, broken or stained with various colored markers. We tried cleaning them but it is too the point we are in need of new ones, as well as new erasers and markers to go with. Thank you!
