My Project

Welcome to my classroom project! With your support, we aim to provide essential tools for our 6th graders' success in their new academic journey. Your generosity will supply us with class set headphones, erasers, expo markers, math games, reading games, and classroom organization items.

These materials are not just supplies; they are the building blocks of a conducive learning environment.

With headphones, students can engage in audio learning activities without distraction. Erasers and expo markers ensure a clean slate for endless learning possibilities on our whiteboards. Math and reading games will foster interactive and enjoyable learning experiences, making concepts stick.

Our goal is to create a space where students can focus on learning, not on missing supplies. By removing this worry, we empower them to arrive at school eager and prepared to delve into new discoveries and challenges.

With your support, we can provide them with the resources they need to thrive and excel. Thank you for joining me on this journey to unlock their full potential!
