Supplies for Third Grade

Help me give my students the classroom supplies needed to start a productive year of learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Russell's classroom raised $701

My Project

Basic school supplies allow students to be prepared for success. Many students do not come to school prepared with the supplies needs for a successful day of learning. It would be a wonderful opportunity for me to provide every students with the supplies they need to be prepared for success.

Notebooks are essential for recording things that you have learned.

One of my focuses is teaching students how to take notes by modeling with an easel pad. The challenge is that some students have notebooks, while others do not. With funding through this project, every student will have the same exact notebook, which makes teaching them to take notes easier. Also, the notebooks are separated into subjects. This makes it easier to find notes for different subjects.
