My Project

I am seeking basic supplies to start the school year off great with my students. Since I am not a gen ed teacher, I don't have a roster of students to support my room. I am requesting items that will help my classroom succeed from the beginning.

I want my students to have pencils, a sharpener, playdough, and headphones so that students can come into my room with the supplies needed to succeed.

I spend a lot of time with these students in small groups and know exactly what we need to be successful.
