My Project

Have you ever seen kids with a dry erase marker? Kids LOVE them! However, kids also tend to leave the lids off so they dry out, smash the tips of the markers, and completely misplace them. Well, the markers that I'm asking for are fabulous! They write with precision, the tip won't smash and they have a guarantee that they won't dry out. We use the markers for spelling, math, writing and reward drawing time!

These dry erase markers, pencils, and crayons are must haves for every classroom!

The pencils are thicker so they don't brake as easily. I must have spent half my life sharpening pencils, until I found these beauties. Now I only sharpen them once or twice a week and they don't break! An added plus is the triangle shape helps students hold the pencil correctly and they don't roll off the desks.

As for the crayons... can we just say kids go through crayons like water?! I buy the boxes at back to school sells, but then end up throwing half of the colors away because kids can't tell orange from "red orange" or all the other 4 orange colors in the box. So I'm asking for these basic colors kids need for math, phonics, writing, and art.

The last two items are for math and checking student work. This is my 2nd year in 2nd grade and somehow my yard stick wondered off. So...I need two new measuring sticks for students to measure items in the classroom. And lastly, who doesn't love positive, self inking stamp? I use these daily and they are a must to stamp student work.
