My Project

Help my first and second grade special education students be ready for the new, upcoming school year!! This new project includes all of the classroom essentials! The essentials include lots cleaning supplies and personal hygiene items (disinfecting wipes, paper towels, hand soap, hand sanitizer, tissues and disinfecting sprays, etc).

This wishlist also includes items that my previous students have used (and loved) and we need more of!

These items include dry erase markers and erasers, play-doh for sensory learning, behavior incentive sticker charts and new prizes for our prize bin.
