My Project

My students come into my reading intervention classroom for 45 minutes daily. I serve grades K-5 with two assistants so it is a very busy day and we go through a multitude of materials serving over 65 students daily.

These 65 students use a computer program daily for 15 minutes so our headphones get LOTS of wear and tear and need replacing often.

Therefore, we are requesting 12 new pair of headphones as replacements when the current ones go out.

We are also requesting spring mini erasers that we use to help students with phonemic awareness skills. The bins will be used to store our seasonal erasers. We certainly appreciate your willingness to contribute to our project.
