FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Sears's classroom raised $483

My Project

My students are in need of some supplies. We need to replenish our pencil supply as we are down to just a few. My students write a lot and are interested in creating word problems, stories, and drawings.

We need to replenish our paper and other supplies to foster their intrinsic creativity.

We use a lot of construction paper for projects, especially for social studies when learning about Native Americans. We make a big book, each pocket page devoted to a different tribe. They love making up and learn all about our country's tribes.

Furthermore, they love prizes for making advances in their learning and as rewards for helping. We need to restock the prize box.

We also need a DVD player for our weekly biography documentaries.

Lastly, our headphones and mice are worn out and are starting to need replacement. My students use them for tests, apps, and other learning. They deserve all these amazing supplies. Thank you for your consideration.
