New Supplies to Help us Soar in 4th Grade!

Help me give my students some new supplies for our classroom this year!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ciocca's classroom raised $478

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

The books will be a great addition to our classroom library. Every Monday, the students get the chance to browse our classroom library and pick out 4 books that they would like to read. The new book buddy bags is where they will keep their books at their desk!

My 4th grade students are always working hard!

The copy paper and pencils will provide us with the supplies we need to learn! We never seem to have enough pencils and my school is always running out of copy paper!

Thank you or considering donating to my project. It is very much appreciated.
