My Project

Help me purchase fantastic pocket charts and awesome markers! These items will be to start off the new 2025-2026 year with a splash of color and excitement. Pocket charts help me organize vocabulary and phonics cards. Expo markers and Crayola markers are always an area of fun. They lend so much to my student's imagination during writing time. I can just imagine the quiet hush of intrigue as my students use these great new colorful tools to bring their ideas to life. Help me in ensuring the excitement carries on!
