Markers, Pencils, and Paper: The Basics Are Critical

Help me give my students the basics: markers, pencils, paper, and binders, so we can start the year ready to go.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Yoshitsugu's classroom raised $436

My Project

My students are 5 years old and just beginning their school adventures. They deserve to have brand new materials they can call their own. Drawing and writing with special tools make learning to write and building their fine motor skills as exciting as they should be.

Expressing themselves is one of the most critical things my students will do this year.

They come to school with so many stories to tell and teaching them how to put those stories onto paper is one of the best parts of teaching. I love watching our classroom walls fill with their pictures and words and we cannot do this without markers, pens, and paper.
