My Project

With this supplies students will be able to have access to materials that resemble themselves and not have to worry about supplies. These materials will give my students access to create and engage in learning without limitations. Students will have various forms of media to create in the writing station some wonderful and vivid life-like stories and create beyond their imagination at our makers stations. The supplies will give my students memories to last a life and help them invest in their education. These crayons, colored pencils, markers, clay and other materials will allow my students to create beyond their imagination and not have to worry about supplies. My students and I thank you in advance!
