My Project

We need basic supplies for our classroom.

"Having proper supplies in the classroom can enrich engagement, student learning, and classroom management.

It also helps teachers effectively teach and boost student engagement and success. - Study.com

We need pencils always, and the brand I chose is the best available. We use pencils every single day, all day. They are our most used classroom tool. We need glue, markers, Post-Itz, and colored pens. We use Sharpies for many different activities throughout the year.
