My Project
We are completely out of ink and toner for our printers and we are almost out of copy paper. This means we have no classroom newsletters, no homework sheets, no activities for our reading and math center buckets, and no assessments!
For this project we are requesting ink for our printers, a case of copy paper, and some glue sticks as well.
My kiddos love to cut and paste, so we go through glue sticks fairly quickly.
As much as I try to stay away from worksheets and printed work, it is sometimes necessary for ensuring that students are mastering a skill. So having to do without it has really thrown a wrench in our day.
If you would like to help, please consider a donation to our ink and paper project!
