Basics Needed

Help me give my students the basics. We need the Crayola crayons. I create individual bags for my kids each year, including crayons, pencils, glue sticks, expo markers, erasers, and a laminated ten frame. Please & thank you.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Tia's classroom raised $211

My Project

I create supply bags for each student, with their names on them and include everything they may need to be successful in Pre-K. As a part of the Head Start program, I cannot ask the parents for any supplies, so it's up to me to get the supplies.

I like to have the 10 colors that we teach, pencils, erasers, glue sticks, a laminated 10 frame/ number line, dry erase markers and erasers.

Many of my kids come from homes, where they have to share everything and they are very excited to have something that is all theirs, giving them a sense of ownership and pride.

Also, it makes the day run smoother because they don't have to search for supplies, they're all inside their bags.
