My Project

I'd like a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to buy engaging activities created by other teachers, for students to complete during independent work. I'd also like some flipchart markers to make my flipcharts more colorful. Additionally, I'd like some paper towels to help us clean up messes!

When you give an eight-year-old their favorite cereal, they are going to want some milk.

And when you give an eight-year-old milk...well, sometimes it gets messy. At our school, students eat breakfast in the classroom, and sometimes they accidentally spill their milk or juice. Our students are also allowed to have water bottles in the classroom, but this means we sometimes have spills throughout the day. Our school provides us with the thin, one-ply brown paper towels that you find in the bathroom - these are not designed to absorb large amounts of water, juice, or milk. I'd love to have some super absorbent paper towels in the room so that when these messes happen, we can sop them up quickly and move on with our day!
