My Project

Supplies are a must in any classroom. Sometimes educators realize they need something the moment the realize they need it! That happens to me quite a bit. I'll be dreaming up the perfect lesson or modifying an existing lesson to make it more engaging and then BOOM, I realize I don't have what I need to make the lesson happen. I'm missing some key component that would really bring the lesson to life.

This project seeks to supply my classroom with some amazing Quill brand products that I have been wanting for so long and have not been able to acquire due to financial limitations.

The table is for a workspace for student-to-student grouping. The tissues and paper towels are for students to use at-will. I like my students (any students, honestly) to be able to come get what they need from my table without even needing to ask. You need paper towels to wipe your hands or clean up a spill? Grab it and go!

The highlighters I have requested in this project will be used for annotating readings and pulling main ideas and key facts for note-taking. I could go on and on. I was so excited about the opportunity to receive Quill brand products, that I selected anything that I could use in the classroom on a regular basis and that I need and currently do not have.
