Simple Supplies!

My students need a listening center, pencil sharpener, pencils, sheet protectors, and binders to help our classroom run properly and smoothly.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Gleason's classroom raised $395

This project is fully funded

My Students

We start our day off trying to find a pencil sharpener to sharper our pencils. After we find a sharpener, we need pencils to sharpen! My class is so smart. Being able to be self sufficient would greatly allow us to succeed academically.

My students are very smart and very inquisitive.

They love to be independent. They are taking ownership of their own learning. They walk into my classroom each day with bright eyes and ready to learn. They ask a million questions and can't wait to hear my answers. I love being their teacher!

My Project

The materials I have requested will allow us my students to be more independent. I will be able to assign them jobs such as sharpening pencils and filling papers in binders. They will be able to listen to stories independently. They will learn responsibility and leadership skills through these materials.

Donations to this project will allow my students to take responsibility for themselves and become more independent.

We will no longer waste time looking for a pencil sharpener and pencils to sharpen. We will be able to file our weekly work in binders. We will be able to listen to stories on our own and record important information. We will be able to file our homework in our page protectors. This project will allow my students to take pride in our classroom.
