My Project

It's difficult to imagine just how many little odds and ends teachers need to stock their classroom with each and every school year. It goes well beyond what the school provides! I would love to add these awesome items to my classroom with a little bit of your help and some Donors Choose magic!

This project will truly help us get some amazing items, like highlighting strips to help my littles focus on the line they are reading, and snacks and treats to motivate their little minds and bellies!

We also need correcting tape, whiteboards for quick individual checks daily during instruction, Skittles, Starburst, colored pens, and of course, Happy Birthday bracelets!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
