My Project

My students are so excited to come into my classroom and learn. Unfortunately, most of the students come to school without the necessary supplies. I would like for all of my students to have headphones so they can focus on completing their online assignments.

My students will use the notebooks and erasers to complete their independent assignments in math.

I would like the dry erase boards and markers for reading whole group instruction. It will give my students a way to show their thinking. Thank you so much for your support.
