My Project

I teach low-income children whose families have a difficult time providing school supplies each year. While our school provides some, there are still some school supplies that would help kids succeed.

I would really appreciate support in providing my class with handwriting paper and markers so that we can grow in our writing skills.

This is a huge focus of 2nd grade, and I want to make it more engaging!

The tape and laminating sheets make it easy to display student work as well as protect important papers or projects.

The Legos are a real treat! We have STEM bins in our classroom to spark creativity and innovation, but they also help children build the necessary fine motor skills that they need to handle their pencils, crayons, and other tools.
