My Project

My classroom is in need of some supplies for next year, such as paper, pencils, and markers. With these supplies, my students will thrive, learn, and create! I've also included some social-emotional materials for my students, who will greatly benefit from them.

My students are talented, hardworking, motivated kids who deserve the chance to learn and grow.

With these supplies, including snacks and supplies for the classroom, I'm confident my students will have all they need to thrive in 4th grade! We appreciate you, and thank you for reading about my classroom project!
