My Project

For a child to be successful, they need the right tools and atmosphere. Simple items like paper, pens, and Post-its are for our small group learning center. Some supplies will be used to make our classroom a happy and positive environment. The cleaning supplies and tissues will help keep our room clean and germ-free so students can stay healthy, so they can be at school and learn. Things like notebooks and Post-its are used throughout the class to take notes and ask questions so we constantly run out and need to refill our supply.
