My Project

Nothing says September like brand-new school supplies! Each year, our classroom uses a variety of essential items on a daily basis, from testing folders to colored paper. As time passes, some of our supplies get tired and need to be replaced.

Through this project, I will start the school year with fresh items that will elevate learning and spark joy in my classroom.

My students would all be able to start the year with essential items, which would ease the burden on parents. All students would have a pencil box and zipper pouches for headphones. We would also have brand-new markers, construction paper, and sentence strips for many of our exciting activities throughout the year. These items would be greatly appreciated and well-loved! Thank you for considering a donation to our classroom.
