My Project

I am so excited to get my classroom and students ready to return to school. Many of my students come to school with few to no school supplies. This project will help with this problem. I want my students ready for the upcoming school year. My classroom is in need of dry erase makers, glue sticks, and disinfectant wipes, but the remaining school supplies will be given out to my students who are in need of school supplies in their main subjects.

This project will prepare my students mentally for the upcoming school.

No worries about school supplies!!This project is not only for supplies in my class but supplies that my students need in their other classes like math, science, ELA, and social studies. I want to make sure my students have all the school supplies they need to feel successful at school!! Students who have their needed school supplies will come to school mentally prepared to learn!!
