Getting Mrs. C's Students What They Need!

Help me give my students supplies they desperately need but don't have (calculators, pencils), and help me keep my classroom clean, organized, and welcoming with Clorox wipes, storage bins and folders, and classroom decoration.

My Project

My students come to class without the essentials to be able to access the math curriculum each day. Every day, I supply pencils, calculators, and other essential items to allow them to work in the classroom. I supply most of this myself. I would like for my classroom to be more inviting, with colorful organization and wall content posters.

Having an organized and inviting classroom will address the social/emotional needs of my students.

The cell phone holder will help to make my classroom a safe space where they can put aside other things going on their lives and focus on their academic learning. Cleaning supplies will allow me to keep the room a healthy place for students to learn so they have less sick days. Basic teaching supplies (that I don't get otherwise), like the different color whiteboard markers, will allow me to display good notes for students on the board.
