Paper and Pencils for Days

Help me give my students the basic of the basic, paper and pencils!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Johnson's classroom raised $320

This project is fully funded

My Project

Second grade is the year where the students start to get the writing bug! Sparks ignite into ideas that will be put to paper! Help me transition my new students from struggling to write, to become the best 2nd grade authors out there!

Who knew pencils were considered as gold in 2nd grade?!

The most basic utensil in the classroom is the one that is the most needed! This one tool will allow us to explore the different worlds of writing, math, science, art, and ELA. Copy paper is needed for all the assignments we will have this second! And talk about hands-on crafting that this amount of construction paper will help with! The motor skills and creativity awaits!
