I'm Beginning to See the New School Year

Help me give my students supplies that will help with small group instruction and give them materials to start out the year!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Winningham's classroom raised $308

My Project

The beginning of the school year can always be a stressful time for some students because they see that their classmates are coming in with materials on the supply list and they may not have them. I never want to make my students feel left out for not having what they need to start the school year.

Most materials in this project will allow my students to have the materials they need to start the year even if they didn't bring them from home.

I have included items such as pencils, folders, refill tubes of lead, and markers because these items are used heavily in my classroom and it is always nice to have an over supply of them.

I have also included items such as the earbuds and menu covers for small group time. If the students are not with me, earbuds help them if they are working on their Chromebooks and then the menu covers allow me to have organizers that we will use on a daily basis ready to go for my small groups.

I love seeing my students grow each year and I can't wait to watch a brand new group of students learn and grow.
