Help me give my students a great start to the school year by providing us with supplies that I can use to create centers, organize written work, and make anchor charts.

My Students

This amazing class of third graders never ceases to amaze me. I have half of my class here at school face to face and half online learning from home. My class consists of students who are ELL (English Speakers of other Languages), SLD (Specific Learning Disorder), and who receive free or reduced lunch.

My Project

Many of my students come to school without basic supplies. By having these extra materials on hand, they do not feel embarrassed that they are missing anything. I will be able to provide them with exactly what they need.

Basic supplies are always a necessity in an elementary classroom.

As a teacher, I go through staples, tape, and file folders so fast. I like to have extra headphones on hand in case any students do not have their own pair, or they break. We go through tissues so fast, so having a few extra boxes is very helpful!
