My Project

My students love to read and their favorite character is Pete the Cat. I would like to add some fresh books to our library, mostly Pete the Cat, but some culturally inclusive books as well. We also love crafts, so we need more Play-doh, water color paint , and brushes in the class.

My students have lunch early in the day, so they are hungry by the afternoon.

Snacks will help them concentrate and get through the rest of the day. The variety pack will give them a choice and keep them going to the end of the school day.
