My Project

I am a teacher in New Orleans and I am trying to set up my first grade classroom with the needed basic supplies. We needed Lakeshore Sight-Word Daily Activity Journal - Set of 10, pencils, eraser sets and crayons along with markers for the coming academic year !

My parents are excited about the students having a safe environment for their kids, they are fully on board.

However they can't help me get the basic supplies as they work two or more jobs and are swamped. Your kind help and support will be greatly appreciated. We will wish to set up centers for art and writing . My students need to learn basic sight words and the journals will be used on a daily basis.
