FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Anderson's classroom raised $303

My Project

I am asking for materials for my kindergarten classroom to start the year off with a bang! The pencils I am requesting are developmentally appropriate for kindergarten students. The pencils are very important for the writing process.

The Days of the Week poster will be used for visual learning.

We will use the visual learning material during circle time daily. The dry erase boards will be used when we are learning letters and number concepts. We will use the "I Do " and "We Do" concepts so they can mirror me.
