My Project

In my classroom, we are all about including everyone in the learning. My wonderful students need markers, pencils, and paper to complete their classroom projects, which they love to do. My students are often very busy in the classroom. We are often running out of paper and pencils. At times, not having these supplies discourages students from moving forward. We are asking for headphones to make math more exciting. We also need paper to use as scratch paper during our testing.

My students need many more pencils to make it through the rest of the year.

The sets of pencils will come in handy every day. We are learning so much that we constantly run out of pencils to do our work. They will finally have enough pencils to keep them on their learning path. Each student will receive a pencil pouch to store their pencils.

Headphones are a necessity, especially because my students are non-readers and need the computer to read to them. By providing my class with a set of headphones, my students will be able to maximize their use of the computer and independent work time. It will also help reduce the anxiety that my students may begin to feel when their headphones are not working. Since we differentiate the learning in the classroom.

These disinfectant cleaners, disinfectant wipes, and tissues will help keep the room clean daily to protect and prevent the spread of any infections.

Your generous donation to our project will improve our classroom by helping students have the necessary tools to be successful.

This will make an impact on my students' lives for the better. Every day, they will be prepared for class and learning!
