Basic Supplies For A New Year!

My students need some simple classroom supplies for their year in kindergarten.

My Students

As a second year teacher, I am still trying my best to collect supplies for my students in order to further their learning. I am so excited to start my second year in kindergarten and can't wait to meet the children I will have the pleasure of teaching. With these materials, I know we will have a very successful second year!

I simply want what is best for my students and for them all to have the same resources and we need some help to make that happen.

My Project

If this project gets funded, my students will have the option to sharper their pencils in our classroom, instead of traveling down the hall. This has been an issue since we are a kindergarten class where the students are more apt to get lost coming back to class. My students will also be able to use clipboards to do work anywhere in the room, creating several differentiated seating options. The stools will also help give students differentiated seating options in the classroom.

The differentiated seating options will help those students who learn better when they have more space to themselves or those who need a quieter area to work in.
