Classroom Basics

My students need basic materials to enhance our classroom environment. Materials to make our classroom more organized and to create displays to show off our students hard work. We need crayons, notebooks and more.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Popow's classroom raised $595

This project is fully funded

My Students

Attending a Title I school, my students face challenges inside and outside of the classroom. Our fifth grade class is looking to provide materials for this group of wonderful and diverse learners.

Our students have a wide variety of needs, these materials will help us meet the individual needs of each and every student.

We are a project based learning school which allows students to take an active approach to their learning. It is a challenge to provide all the materials the classes need to complete the projects to their best ability.

We have many projects planned for this school year and your donation will be greatly appreciated. Your donation will make a difference in the lives of many deserving children. Thank you in advance.

My Project

Materials like glue, notebooks, crayons, and dry erase markers are everyday items we need. Other materials like borders, and bulletin board paper will help us display our students' work the way it should be. The book bins will help us organize our classroom library so students can find books that interest them. We need chart paper to create helpful visuals for students to display around the classroom. Other materials like a solar system activity kit will give students an opportunity to engage in the unit hands on! Office supplies like paper clips, envelopes an binder rings are needed for day to day classroom paperwork. Additionally, we are asking for some prizes for students to work to earn through our classroom economy system.

By donating to our project, you will have a hand in making our classroom a better place for our students.

We are asking for help providing necessary materials for our classroom. We are trying to enhance our classroom to make it a better learning environment.
