My Project

I would love to provide my second grade scholars with all of the best learning tools for this new school year! We just completed our first week (8/14 - 8/18) and they have already showcased how eager they are to grow as readers, writers, scientists, artists, mathematicians, and all other possibilities they imagine.

Items that encourage and empower them during their learning such as books, math tools, writing, and more will help them grow confidence in their brilliance throughout the school year.

We will be grateful for any donations to our class family!

Thank you.

With immense gratitude,

Ms. Koko and second grade scholars <3
