Help me give my students basic school supplies to start off the year!

My Project

My students are in need of the basic supplies as they start next school year. I want to offer to students the basic school supplies to not put any more financial pressure on the students' families.

They need to have these basic supplies in order to learn, enhance their fine motor skills, and continue to grow.

My students need pencils to use for their school work. We need pencils to write with every day! I am also asking for crayons to supplement our classroom supplies. I am requesting pencil bags to store all of our supplies in!

I want my students to become responsible learners who see the value in their learning. I teach them to challenge their own thinking within the world around them.
