My Project

What I love most about my students is their endless curiosity, their creativity, and their strong sense of pride in their learning environment. They come to school each day eager to explore, collaborate, and grow—and they thrive when they have access to the right tools that help them stay engaged, organized, and inspired.

Our classroom is in need of essential resources to stay clean, stocked, and creative.

The 192-pack of #2 pre-sharpened pencils will ensure every student is prepared to write, reflect, and complete assignments without delay. The TruTac Staple Gun will help us hang student work and classroom displays securely and professionally, transforming our learning space into one we are proud of. The Lysol Air Sanitizer Spray and Amazon Basics Disinfecting Wipes are key to keeping our classroom safe, healthy, and welcoming—especially during cold and flu seasons.

In addition, creative supplies like Crayola Mini Colored Pencils, Glitter Foam Stickers, and Rainbow Colored Masking Tape will be used during projects, interactive lessons, and for celebrating student achievements. These materials encourage self-expression, hands-on learning, and joyful classroom moments. The “Star Student” wristbands and award certificates will motivate and recognize students for their hard work and positive behavior.

My goal with this project is to create a classroom environment that is not only clean and organized, but also joyful, colorful, and filled with opportunities for creativity and recognition. What makes my students special is how much they care—about their work, about their classroom, and about each other. These supplies will support them in continuing to build that positive, productive, and inspiring learning space together.
