Classroom Randoms

Help me give my students items like headphones and an Apple Pencil for some useful classroom items that will help us learn.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Culpepper's classroom raised $983

This project is fully funded

My Project

Many of these items are things that will make life in our classroom a bit easier. These gifts will serve as visual and physical resources to help our students learn.

The headphones we currently have are continually falling apart and many only work in one ear.

We need them to learn on the computer. The chair socks are even for another class' benefit, as we are on the upper story, and our downstairs neighbors are often complaining about how loud we are up here. Other items are going to help our class record information and will be used as a reference during instructional time. Having a laminator in class will allow me to create individualized activities to support students who are below and those who are above grade level.
