Let's Start the Year Off Right!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Chaussee's classroom raised $584
This project is fully funded
My Project
I teach young enthusiastic children who are eager to learn. Teaching young learners at the beginning of the year is extremely challenging, especially when you do not have all the resources. Our Reading and Math programs have excellent ideas on how to engage our learners with writing activities, counting activities and art projects, but are lacking all the materials to execute the lessons with integrity.
Ready made writing journals, art supplies, and counting manipulatives will help my young learners stay engaged in all learning activities at the beginning of the year!
This classroom project was brought to life by Kleenex
and 8 other donors.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
You donate directly to the teacher or project you care about and see where every dollar you give goes.
