My Project

Spice has been a beloved member of the classroom for the last 5 years! Every few months, we need to reorder some of his supplies. By donating to this project you will help to purchase Spice new hay and food pellets.

When we are unable to go outside for recess due to weather, students spend their recess period in the auditorium.

I provide them with a bin of activities to bring and use. This project includes a language based game called Tapple to add to ours recess bin! Students even sometimes borrow our recess games to bring home and play with their families.

I have also included some classroom supplies that we have used up in the first part of the year. Thank you for supporting our classroom community!
