New To 1st Grade

Help me give my students things they need to learn next school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. DiPietro's classroom raised $417

My Project

These items are to help my students learn. This year was their first year in school (kindergarten) but next year they will be in 1st grade, and I want to make sure that they have everything available to them to make the transition an easy one.

First grade is very important.

My students will be learning so many new things and having things in the classroom that they can work together with their classmates will make it special for them.

The students will use these items from their morning meeting throughout the day for math, literacy, and even science and social studies. There are headphones for each student so that they are able to hear their devices without making it difficult for others in the class. I also want to make sure that each student has their own whiteboard and enough dry erase markers and pencils, so that isn't something they would have to worry about.
