Equipped to Learn: Classroom Basics for Big Success

Help me give my students supplies that make a difference. Headphones to focus during reading, pencils and glue sticks to create, ink to bring lessons to life, small group materials to help every child feel supported and successful.

My Project

This project will provide the essential classroom tools that support student learning and help me deliver effective instruction each day.

I'm requesting:

Headphones for students to access audiobooks, reading interventions, and text-to-speech tools

Pencils and glue sticks for interactive notebooks and writing assignments

Printer ink so I can print reading passages, student feedback, and enrichment materials

Dry erase markers for both student and teacher use during modeling and group practice

A carpet sweeper to keep our learning space tidy without relying on limited custodial resources

Small group ELA materials to support intervention and extension

A Teachers Pay Teachers gift card so I can access high-quality lessons and resources created by other educators

These are the quiet heroes of the classroom—basic tools that make a big difference in keeping students engaged, supported, and successful.
