Mrs. Vest from Ogden UT is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Springtime Restocking of the Basics

Help me give my students a full pantry because as our student body numbers rise, our supplies diminish; basics like paper, pencils, erasers are dwindling.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students love to experiment with new ways to create and build, but without the basics (paper, pencils, erasers, etc.) we have no firm foundation. Paper Mache' planets, chalk dragon eyes, 3D shapes all need the basics to begin.

As our student numbers grow, so does the challenge of keeping supplies ready for their important work.

My students have many different learning styles and, all too often, challenging backgrounds or current home displacement. But they are full of wonder and enjoy the challenging projects I bring to them. In my classroom, the playing field is leveled. We are all learning, we know we can do hard things, and have fun doing it.

Fun is the name of the game, but first it starts with supplies on the shelves. Please, help me restock the shelves and continue our "playing to learn" STEAM (STEM + Art) focus.
