My Project

With this project, I am requesting a few, miscellaneous essential items. This includes pencils, cleaning supplies, snacks, and Kleenex. We are about halfway done with the school year, so we are starting to run low on a few daily items.

The requested items will restock some of our essential classroom supplies used daily.

Snacks are given out to students every day to help keep up our energy levels. With cold and flu season upon us, we are blowing through Kleenexes faster and need to restock. The fabric sanitizer and broom and dustpan set will allow us to clean our floors and sanitize our flexible seating. The rug tape will be used on our classroom rugs to help prevent tripping hazards and what classroom doesn't need a restock of pencils at at least one point in the school year?
