My Classroom Needs Scissors to Use

Help me give my students Scissors in our classroom so that we can do classroom activities

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. McMaster's classroom raised $194

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We do a lot of printing with ink and paper and a lot of cutting in third grade and we have shown that the scissors that we have in class are very dangerous for our class so using something like this until we are able to transition into using correctly would be great! We will use the scissors and science social studies for vocabulary and many other activities throughout the year and it will take a lot of load off of me as a teacher so that I don’t have to keep cutting everything for them. Please help us get scissors.
