Equip Their Curiosity: Essential Supplies for First Graders!

Help me give my students the essentials they need to grow, create, and explore!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ryan's classroom raised $223

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are curious, energetic, and excited about learning! They come from diverse backgrounds and have a range of learning styles, but one thing they all share is a love for discovery. With the right resources, they can reach their full potential and develop the foundational skills they need for lifelong success.

Help my first graders tune in, focus up, and thrive with the right supplies!

Our first graders are eager learners who thrive with the right tools to support their growth. This project aims to provide essential classroom supplies and headphones to enhance their learning experience. Headphones will help students focus during digital literacy activities, individualized lessons, and read-alouds without distractions. Other supplies will ensure they have everything needed to engage in hands-on learning and creative exploration.
