My Project

I am new to 6th grade this year and will be teaching English Language Arts and Social Studies. Because of this, I need help with stocking my classroom with items that will help both myself and my students.

I will be teaching all 3 classes in ELA and need some help with getting the tools necessary for a fun and engaging year with my students.

There are games for indoor recess and other times when they have earned game time. General office supplies such as a desk organizer and tape dispenser to help me set up my new classroom and scissors, a pencil sharpener and other supplies that the students will be able to use from enrichment projects to supplies that we will use throughout our day.
