Help a Space Teacher, Space Out!

I need paper, and organizers, and since I am an Earth and Space teacher, I need a telescope to help myself and my students understand celestial events better.

My Project

I go through a lot of paper, and I mean A LOT of paper. The paper would be a huge help! The door-hanging organizer will help create space in my closet, and still keep things ready to go. I like to have things prepped and ready for my students with all of the art supplies vs science supplies since this is an art-infused school.

My passion for learning about space is astronomical and the void will never be filled.

A lot of my students are that same way, especially with the number of questions I get. I feel as though, I can help them understand their own questions if I let them see things through the telescope. The telescope has the ability to allow me to attach my phone to it so I can take pictures of what I capture on the telescope. I will be able to upload it and share it in the online classroom.
