Classroom Essentials to Finish the Year Strong!

My Project

My students need some classroom essentials to carry through until the end of the school year. With cold and flu season still in full swing, my students need additional tissues available in the classroom to work on independently wiping their noses.

Dry erase markers are a huge hit this year in our classroom as we have students who have been highly reinforced with their writing tasks when given the opportunity to write with a dry erase marker and wipe-off board.

I love seeing my students light up with how easily the markers glide across the board and how easily mistakes/corrections can be made when wiped off with the ability to start off. I am hoping to get a set of microfiber erasers to help students with erasing with the use of an eraser, and to help prevent them from attempting to use their hand. The microfiber erasers are sensory friendly and bright colored which is sure to catch the attention of my students.

Glue sticks are another item that are highly used in the classroom across the school day during craft, reading, math, and science.

Having these much-needed items will guarantee a great ending to our school year as we keep on learning and doing!
