My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We need your help in getting everything through our door!

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, but you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

The tables and desks will fill up our classroom for learning. The chart paper will be used to create anchor charts that reflect the discussions we have during our mini-lessons. The clipboards will be offered to students, so they may work where they are comfortable. The dry-erase easels will be used for group work. The printer will help us publish, share, and display our ideas.

The kids will be thrilled to receive the birthday items on their special day.
