My Project

As the school year is approaching the end, my students have used all of the basic supplies needed for school. With the changing weather and allergy season, my students are using more and more tissues. We have completely run out of these. My students are also in need of pencils and glue sticks. They use the glue sticks to glue their notes and homework into their composition books. They need the earbuds to listen to the required videos that align to our math lessons. The pencil boxes will be used to hold their supplies such as colored pencils, glue sticks and scissors. They also need an electric pencil sharpener for our classroom.
