My Project

I teach a wonderful group of 4th-grade students who come to school each day full of energy, curiosity, and a love for learning. They are thoughtful, creative, and always eager to take on new challenges. To help them thrive in our classroom, I’m requesting support for a few essential supplies that will make a big difference in their daily experience.

Many of our classroom chairs are old and wobbly, making it hard for students to stay comfortable and focused, new chairs will provide the stability and support they need to concentrate and participate fully in lessons.

We also need reliable pencil sharpeners and a steady supply of pencils—basic tools that are used constantly throughout the day for writing, drawing, and problem-solving. Magnets will help us bring lessons to life on our whiteboard, making learning more interactive and hands-on, especially during math and literacy activities.

To keep our shared tables organized, we’re asking for table baskets that will help students manage their materials and work together more efficiently. Paper organizers will also help us keep track of assignments, handouts, and student work, creating a more structured and tidy learning environment.

Each of these items will help create a classroom that is more comfortable, organized, and engaging. With your support, my students will be better equipped to focus, collaborate, and grow as learners. Your generosity will have a direct and lasting impact on their education, and we are so grateful for your help!
