Replacement Needed!

My Project

My wonderful second graders are special and a funny group! They are full of personality.

I'm looking to replace broken items and to get the materials we desperately need.

My other accordion seat has a hole in it that can't be fixed. We had to throw it away, so now the group who gets that kind of seat, someone has to get a regular chair. I'd like for everyone to be equal. We recently became 1 to 1 technology and I need a class set of headphones since those weren't provided for us. My other headphones from years ago keep breaking. I'd like fidgets for those who are feeling anxious and need help self-regulating. I don't currently have a bookshelf for displaying thematic books for students to access. My students are curious and love reading about our new content, but I just use a crate for them to dig through. This will help students make book choices. I constantly need ink to print various school materials from report cards to new activities and weekly newsletters for parent communication.
