My Project

These supplies will help bridge the gap between our virtual classroom and home. The postage stamps, stickers, and bookmarks will be used to mail my students rewards, motivation, and special recognition. My fourth grade students love to receive mail from me and are excited to show their classmates where they put their stickers.

My students are located all over Washington state and the rewards I send to them in the mail help to unify our class and recognize their hard work.

They are always excited to receive their bright envelopes from me and these special supplies will help us end the year strong.
