My Project

Donating towards snacks for my students helps them to get more actively involved and participate more. The use of school supplies and materials helps on Fridays, when I do Social Studies projects with my students. I teach 6-8th grade Social Studies and always plan fun and creative projects that will help them better understand what they are learning in their lessons. We need scissors, markers, crayons and pencils.

I am a new teacher, but I have subbed for many different teachers and have learned a lot from them and assisting with this request would be greatly appreciated!

Ms. Madeline
Grades 6-8
