First Grade Super Stars!

Help me give my students a hands-on experience to make learning exciting and memorable with Math Manipulative Toolboxes, soft seats, engaging lessons and materials and more.

My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a purpose. In other words, I know exactly how everything will be used. I am requesting Math Manipulative Toolboxes, soft seats, engaging lessons and materials and more. The math materials will help us throughout the year. The books will build better readers. The STEM building materials will help us adjust within our morning routine and create a classroom culture.

My students are amazing and I want to ensure they have everything they need to be successful.

First graders learn best through hands-on play like learning.

We thank you in advance for your support.
