Help me give my students the supplies needed to make creative engaging lessons.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Bene's classroom raised $499

My Project

My students deserve the best! I teach in a Title I school. No matter their personal circumstances, my students walk into my classroom each morning ready and excited to learn. I feel it is my duty as an educator to provide students with the best education possible; this includes creative activities, arts integration, and innovative exploration. I, along with my students, choose to embrace the idea of "thinking outside the box" at all times. Please help fund my project which will provide my students with needed supplies, including book buddies, math and science manipulatives, and rewards for positive behaviors and work ethics. Additionally, I'm requesting laminating pouches to extend the life of various games and other materials; and snacks for those days where my students need a snack to keep focused on academics. In helping fund this project, you will join me in reiterating to my students that every person deserves a personalized, top-notch education, regardless of economic status.
