My Project

You just never know when you'll need supplies and how long supplies will last. This year, I have the largest class I've ever had and we are running through supplies faster than in years past.

Midway through the year and it's time to refresh some supplies.

My students are going through erasers like crazy. I like to be able to say yes to whatever they need. Erasers are one of those things right not. For me, I have papers and things everywhere. I would like to get myself organized so I can be a more efficient teacher. I like to put positive notes on sticky notes to give to my students to give them a little pick me up. And right now, we are sharing rulers. It would be nice for everyone to have their own. We did a paint project before Christmas break, and I realized we don't have any quality paint brushes.
