My Project

In our 2nd grade classroom, students are strengthening their writing skills, solving multi-step math problems, and learning to express their ideas clearly. To do this, they need consistent access to sharpened pencils, plenty of writing paper, and a well-organized workspace.

A durable pencil sharpener will ensure students can stay on task without disruptions.

Desk organizers will help them manage their supplies independently, encouraging responsibility and focus. With your support, we can reduce time lost to searching for materials and spend more time learning, creating, and growing together.

These supplies will support daily writing journals, math practice, reading responses, and creative activities that help students build confidence and pride in their work.

Thank you for believing in our classroom. Your generosity makes a lasting difference in the lives of my students—and helps them feel seen, supported, and ready to shine every single day.
