My Project

Pencils, crayons, binders, and pencil boxes would be a huge addition and put smiles on their faces. Art has been an outlet to relieve stress. We need some essentials to help us this year. Basic needs as students come to school will allow us to help them. I would like to be able to send home some learning materials for those students to thrive at home and school.

We will use this for crafts and supplies to create art and do our classwork.

Our class loves to do artwork and learn in our classroom. These materials of basic supplies would be wonderful for our first graders. This would be a huge blessing for them. . They can put a quick smile on their face like none other. Please help us to make this project bring them all together.
