Essential Supplies

Help me give my students essential supplies to finish the school year strong!

My Project

Please help me provide the kindergarten students with some last-minute essential supplies for the end of the year!

As the year is coming to an end, so are the supplies that we use daily in the classroom.

Pencils are hard to come by, and erasers are even tougher to find. Donating to this project will give the students these essential writing materials along with other supplies such as chart paper and zip ties. We use the chart paper every day to make things such as story maps and math anchor charts. The zip ties are used to keep students' pencil pouches attached to their chair, so they won't get lost. Please help us end the year strong! Thank you.
