My Project

Many of my students lack basic classroom supplies and the pandemic has really emphasized this with students only able to use materials that they have at their home. While we were working remote, students struggled to find paper and pencils to write out math problems. They also did not have headphones to listen to our class instruction without the distractions of siblings also having their audio on for their own classes.

I want to continue to provide a supply kit with everything they may need to complete their schoolwork in all their classes whether at home or in school.

Students need binders for organizing their work and headphones for their laptops. Band aids, tissues, and hand sanitizer is essential to have in our classroom to maximize classroom instruction time. Having binder pouches help to keep essential materials organized for group projects and class supplies. In addition, copy paper is essential to provide students with guided notes and practice work.
