Help Make Ms.Ks Class

Help me give my students an amazing school year with the requested crayon colors, stackable stools, floor cushions and more. I just finished my first year of teaching and realized that I was missing a lot of items that will help my students succeed.

My Project

I love that my students will become the next generation of great leaders. Each resource will help them succeed from the flexible seating choices to the pre sharpened pencils. When it comes to the crayons and colored pencils they will use those to advance their learning. My students will be able to use everything in the project because it will be available to them. I plan to use everything and make it accessible to they. Even the label maker will be helpful when it comes to labeling things around the room for them. Which will help them with word recognition and fluency.
