My Project

My students come to me bright eyed and ready to learn each and every day. Their energy is contagious and I want to provide them with the best learning environment possible. The Lakeshore mobile wedge desk and chair will help add to my classroom seating availability.

School supplies can add up quickly when parents are asked to purchase them on their own.

In my classroom we use Clorox wipes everyday to try and help cut down on sickness and spreading germs. The Expo markers, glue sticks, pencils, and crayons we use everyday to complete worksheets and group learning tasks. Laminating pouches allow me to reuse printed pages over and over again and ensure durability. My goal is to help alleviate some of that burden through donations that include Clorox wipes to crayons, pencils to dry erase markers.
