Let's Get Ready for Winter!

Help me give my students warm gloves, chapstick, and hand lotion in preparation for a cold winter.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Shank's classroom raised $251

My Project

Many of our students are not prepared for the winter weather. Some students come to school without gloves or missing one! Some students come to school wearing sweatshirts instead of winter coats.

The materials in this project will be used to create a "Winter Ready" kit containing warm gloves, chapstick, and hand lotion for each student.

Hand lotion and chapstick are frequent requests made by students. The gloves in this project are the perfect size for third graders. Even when it is cold outside, they love to get outside and play at recess. This project will keep my students warm, cozy, and comfortable during recess and while on their way to and from school. Thank you for considering our classroom to support!!
