New Start for a New Year!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Leaf's classroom raised $490

This project is fully funded

My Project

The supplies I am requesting are necessary for students to be successful learners as they begin a new school year. These supplies are used daily by students. Folders and notebooks keep students organized throughout the day. Expo markers and whiteboard erasers are used daily as students work independently and with partners to solve problems. Colored paper is used for activities students work on with partners and independently throughout the week. Disinfecting wipes and Kleenex help keep our classroom community clean and sanitized so students can stay healthy and in school.

Your generous donations will ensure my amazing students have the resources needed for a successful year of learning.

My goal for this project is to ensure my students and I have a successful year of teaching and learning.
