My Project

I have a group of awesome third grade students that all have unique needs. I am asking for some classroom basics for a more welcoming classroom.

To start, my class has a lot of whiteboard space.

I will need lots of magnetic tape to help display student work. In addition, I am asking for whiteboard erasers. In the past, I have asked students to bring in old socks, but most forget so they end up wasting Kleenex. With these whiteboard erasers, I can just provide the erasers for the kids and have one less thing to worry about for the year. We use dry erase boards everyday so this would really make my life easier. Also, I am asking for some buttons that I can personalize for birthdays and other achievements to make students feel welcome and loved. Finally, I need some laminator pouches so I can laminate centers that I can reuse year after year!

Please donate to my class. You will bring so much joy to my class!
