My Project

Thank you for supporting our classroom! As a kindergarten teacher, I strive to create an organized and engaging space where young learners thrive. Working in a low income environment many families cannot afford to support students with supplies. Here is how we can help.

Folders help students take responsibility for their work and communication.

Glue and pencils are everyday essentials for creativity and learning, while sharpeners keep our tools ready to go. Laminating sheets allow me to reuse key visuals and learning aids, saving time and resources. Name tags foster a strong classroom community and help students feel seen. Your support makes a lasting impact on their learning journey!
