My Project

These supplies will help me be a more efficient teacher, and make my classroom more inviting! Currently, I am using a very worn border on my bulletin board, the same one I have had for 15 years. Also, both my desk organizers have been broken from students hitting them multiple times with backpacks over the years. My classroom supplies are in a tub that is cracked down one side. It is only held together by tape. My room will look much more inviting and organized with the purchase of these supplies!
