My Project

I supply my classroom with a lot of materials from my own pocket. I do not get a classroom budget to buy anything. Please give my student folders for their class resources and work. Give them band aids for their scrapes. Give them tissues when they come to school sick. I need pencils and a new sharpener so they can work. I spend a lot of money throughout the year on experiments and things, so if I can get the basics covered, that would help my own pocket a lot.
