Soaring to Excellence, 1st Grade a Go!

Help me give my students a fresh start to First Grade and new learning center materials!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Halloran's classroom raised $415

This project is fully funded

My Project

This year I have leveled up to First Grade!

These items, markers, paper and a CVC word activity center, will give my new classroom a fresh start as well as add to our learning centers.

I have selected materials to enhance more hands-on learning such as supplies for projects, learning games as well as science gear! I also added snacks for incentives and to help fuel those bodies and minds for more focused learning.

I know with these materials, they will help differentiate my teaching style and help provide a more fun yet educational learning environment. With that, I should see improvement in academic grades in all subject areas.

Together we can make it happen! Thank you!
