Hygiene Supplies Keep the Stinky Teenagers at Bay

Help me give my students the supplies they need in the classroom, like markers and supplies they may not have at home, like toothpaste and deodorant.

My Project

Hello. I am a 5th year teacher of 5th and 6th graders. I am looking to fill the need of basic supplies, like marker, glue, paper so that we can be creative. I love to hang my students drawings on the walls around my desk.

I am also looking to fill a need of hygiene supplies for any student that may be struggling.

So many of my students are from low income familes that need extra support. I feel blessed that I am able to give them support when ever and where ever it is needed.
