Snacks and Pencils Keep the Math Flowing

Help me give my students basic comfort supplies for the classroom including snacks and pencils.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Rooney's classroom raised $197

My Project

I would like to supply students with snacks and pencils to keep them motivated to do all their math work

We have long classes and snacks can help students feel motivated to get through the block.

Pencils are a supply we use daily and are always in short supply.

Finally Kleenex is a supply that my school system no Longer supports. We need tissues in the classroom on a daily basis and without school supplying them. We spend a great deal of our own money to ensure that we have enough.
