Classroom Essentials for 5th Grade!

My Students

Attending a Title I school, my students face challenges inside and outside of the classroom. The team of fifth grade teachers are 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

Our list is compiled of mostly classroom basics. These are day-to-day items we are quickly running out of. With large class sizes, the teachers are unable to continue buying these items.

By providing students with these items, we will enable them to take an active role in their learning and continue creating projects to enhance their learning.

Projects are a large part of our curriculum as they are engaging and help students to learn collaboration.

These items like paint, glue, markers, and pencils will all directly impact our students. Without the stress of trying to find materials, our students will be able to focus on their learning and be the most productive.
