New Supplies for First Year Teacher!

Help me give my students book bins and magnet tiles, and a cart!

This project expired on May 8, 2024.

Ms. Giza Sandra Lee Thompson Elementary School
Las Vegas, NV Grades PreK-2

My Project

The students will benefit from the book bins in a small library. I will be able to split the books into genres for the students to choose from during their reading group. I will be able to display books using the magnetized shelves!

The students will be able to use the Jenga set for fun Fridays and enjoy fruit snacks for a treat.

The students will also utilize the markers for math on their own white boards.

I will be able to create a fun and engaging learning environment for my first year teaching with these supplies!
