My Project

My kindergarteners and I use so many supplies throughout our day to be successful. Many of the supplies run out because we use them so often. These supplies are a huge need to our day and will be forever helpful to restock our supplies.

My students love coloring pictures with fun scented smelly markers!

My students love coloring as an option during free choice, however our markers are running dry, and our coloring pages are almost gone (we don't get many copies in our school printer) so, offering students a coloring book to store at school and use to color in when they want to color, will help cut down the amount of copies used for coloring pages.

They love the smelly markers and have fun guessing the smells while coloring.

Thank you for making sure our daily supply needs get met and supporting our students!
