My Project

My students use dry erase markers throughout the day to display their knowledge and practice their spelling and math skills. I am requesting the centimeter grid boards where they can practice finding the area and perimeter of polygons, as well as graphing. As the year has progressed, the students would love a new box of crayons and colored pencils.

I'm looking to supplement my classroom library for my wonderful students who are eager to begin reading chapter books.

This will help to build their confidence and love of reading. My students also need new headphones since some of their original ones have broken since the year began. The headphones are used when the students are working on i-Ready, Epic, and Reflex. These programs help support students' learning and growth in mathematics and language arts.

Finally, some of my students do not come to school with a snack, so I'd love to be able to provide them with one to curb their hunger and engage their minds in learning.
