My Project

I am creating this project to help my students have a wonderful experience starting out their school year with some new school items to kick off the year. Many of these items are an essential part of my classroom and will really have a positive impact on my students. These supplies will help ease the burden on my students' families by helping provide a few supplies off their lengthy list of supplies. Many of my students come from a financially challenged household situations, and simply cannot afford supplies. Trust me, it can quite difficult and embarrassing for students who are not able to come to school with supplies. I will be using these supplies such as expo markers, pencils, and markers to put out supplies for each kid to go "shopping." So they too can have the supplies like their peers. I believe from the bottom of my heart that by providing these supplies will not only bring smiles to kids' faces, but provide the necessary supplies for a successful school year.
