My Project

Our classroom electric pencil sharpener recently broke. Students use pencil sharpeners frequently, so I want to add two new sharpeners to the the classroom to allow more access to pencil sharpening! Also, pencils are in great need for students on a daily basis.

Being able to sharpen pencils in the classroom is crucial to student success.

Sharpies are used for project based learning time within the classroom. Having access to sharpened pencils and sharpies helps students to be successful within the math classroom. I am looking forward to being able to provide these supplies to my students.
