Teacher Basics

Help me give my students supplies that provide a better managed and more inviting classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Parker's classroom raised $354

This project is fully funded

My Project

These are necessary supplies that are usually out-of-pocket expenses for teachers but help make a classroom better. Batteries to keep resources going, painter's tape for hanging student work, laminating sheets for longer lasting materials, and golf pencils for little hands are just a few of the teacher bought supplies. Clipboards will allow students to work independently throughout the room, not just at tables. Colorful dry erase markers will make activities and writing center more interesting and allow students to be more creative.

Students learn better when the classroom is personal, inviting, and accessible for all.

Having their own work displayed, being able to take work to any part of the room, and using writing tools that are just right for them are some of the ways these materials will ensure this for students. Please consider donating and thank you in advance for you support.
