My Project

My students are ready to learn and take on any challenges this year has to bring. They love to do enrichment activities to help understand what is being taught in the classroom. The Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards will help with activities that will keep my students engaged in learning and different activities to keep class fun. With fall and winter around the corner, the Kleenex will help students be able to not miss instructional time due to runny noses. Lastly, pencils are always needed by teachers to make sure each student has the correct materials each day to take good notes.
