Prepared to Learn

Help me give my students some tools such as laminating sheets and math toys that are needed to keep our classroom running smoothly!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ayers's classroom raised $278

My Project

The items I am requesting are all things that will be extremely useful in the classroom. I am looking forward to using the desk organizer in our writing center along with the stapler to give the students the ability to create their own books. The laminating sheets will be especially helpful for my young learners who are learning to write.

The dry-erase calendar will allow the students to have a hands-on learning experience with an extremely important skill.

The colorful markers will entice students to begin writing more often as well.
