Supplies for Continued Success!

Help me give my students the supplies they need to finish the school year off strong!

My Project

The supplies being used will ensure my students are being given the best opportunity to be in a safe and well supplied classroom for the rest of the school year. As a first year teacher, I am unable to personally provide the students with everything that they need.

The materials will be used to help the students learn organization, responsibility and cleanliness.

They will be encouraged to be more responsible in keeping their materials organized in order to be more successful in the classroom. They will also be using the supplies to display their work around the classroom to make the room more reflective of themselves.
