My Project

My home economics class is a startup class, we have had class for a year but most of our equipment is donated and old. My students do not complain but new equipment would be so appreciated. Our school does not have an oven, so the bread machine would allow us to still bake bread. The crock pots would allow us to expand the lessons even more. As fun quick projects we craft as well.

My history class needs a class set of certain things like high lighters and scissors and new workbooks.

Thank you for your consideration in helping my students!
