Creativity and Critical Thinking with Miss Capranica

Help me give my students access to supplemental learning materials from Teachers Pay Teachers!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Capranica's classroom raised $185

This project is fully funded

My Project

The materials being requested will be used to purchase supplemental learning materials for our classroom! One thing that I love about my group of students is that they are creative, and love to learn!

I want to be able to give them fun projects, activities, and opportunities that they may not get to have within our curriculum.

Teachers Pay Teachers is an online resource that allows other teachers to purchase supplemental learning materials for things like fun projects and extra practice activities for things like handwriting, spelling, math, etc.

A few examples of how I have utilized resources from Teachers Pay Teachers in the past include purchasing holiday crafts and projects for my math class, purchasing supplemental resources and games for learning about prefixes and suffixes, and even class jobs templates! There are many amazing resources that Teachers Pay Teachers has to offer!
