My Project

I love how curious, creative, and determined my students are. They come to school ready to learn, share their ideas, and make our classroom a space we all take pride in.

These resources will help me showcase their work, support hands-on learning, and give them the tools they need to succeed.

A Teachers Pay Teachers gift card will give me access to engaging activities tailored to my students’ needs. Toner cartridges will allow me to print those resources and student work for projects, displays, and learning materials. A laminator will help protect and preserve their work so it can be proudly displayed all year. Cardstock will give us a sturdy, colorful canvas for projects and classroom visuals. Composition notebooks will provide each student with a personal space for writing, reflecting, and building their skills over time.

Together, these supplies will help make our classroom feel like a true learning community — one that belongs to the students as much as it does to me.
