My Students

We all know how frustrating it can be when we do not have the right tools for the job. My kids need pencils to help with the job at school. I do not want to stop learning and collaborating because their tool boxes do not have the tools they need to succeed. Help my kids be successful!

My sixth graders are AMAZING!

I love to go to work everyday because to these 11 and 12 year olds I am a super star. The LOVE to read and write. We write everyday. We share real life personal stories in class and then we just write, for fun! Sixth graders are fun because they get the funny stories, yet they still LOVE their teachers.

My Project

Every week last year I was at our local store buying more pencils, we need some help in keeping pencils ready to go for our kids. We will write better stories, create poems, and share feelings with others when we can write. Having pencils readily available for my students will ease a burden in our class so that we can all just get the job done.

Please help my kids be prepared and ready for learning.

I want my kids to feel successful and I know that with the help of these supplies it will ease a burden in our classroom. Thanks for helping us be all that we can be!
