Supplies for a New School Year

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lee's classroom raised $400

This project is fully funded

My Project

It’s almost the start of the school year and I will be welcoming PreK students into my classroom again! My students are a diverse group of students; some who are English language learners and many with special needs. For many of them, it will be their first time in school!

This project will help our class because my students will have the materials they need to have a successful school year!

With the funding of this project, my students will have the necessary supplies we will be using this year such as pens, sentence strips, glue, post-its, and paper, to get them prepared for their learning as well as help us with various art projects. The laminating pouches will help preserve material that will be created for students to use throughout the year. The play-doh will be used during center time and will help students with fine motor skills and encourage creativity.

Please consider helping my students as we launch into a year of fun and learning in Prek!

Ms. Lee PS 126 Jacob August Riis Grades PreK-2
