My Project

The materials that have been chosen to get us off on the right foot for the new year are things we go through like crazy! We cannot seem to keep enough of the necessities.

Almost every hour students are looking for a new pencil.

They love doodling and coloring (especially during one of our IB units ) with fancy markers, but those only last so long. With all the pencils we go through, my electric sharpener has seen its better days. For some reason there is buy in to pencils that are unique to them, they take ownership.

Finally, there is a rule at our school that students cannot leave the classroom without a pass! Our classroom passes get used SO often that there has been a lot of wear and tear to them and it is time to replace them for a fresh look for the new year!

New Year, New Things!
