My Project

My students come from a low socio-economic demographic area. Supplies are mostly a luxury. My students will be using the composition notebooks to create entries and drawings from our class curriculum. These will be fun and exciting while helping explain and remember concepts on tests.

My students deserve to have premium colored pencils, markers and pens to illustrate their Academic Keepsake Journals.

These journals will contain diagrams and sketches that will help with their test taking while giving them a sense of pride at creating their own "book".

Please donate to our project so my students will have fun while creating and learning Science!
