Help me give my students access to classroom supplies that they can use to complete day to day tasks.

My Project

As a special education teacher at our school, it is imperative that my students have hands-on supplies to assist in the learning process. Many of my students do not have supplies that will prepare them for success. Pens, folders, highlighters, and staplers will ensure they are able to complete day-to-day assignments and activities.

Having these supplies available to all students in the classroom will continue to create an inclusive environment that sets each student up for success.

Lastly, these materials will help students stay organized and enjoy the learning process!
