My Project

My students inspire me to become a better educator as well as a better person. Despite their struggles, they are always smiling and eager to learn.

My Kindergarten students need beginner-sized pencils, crayons, and pencil grips.

During the pandemic, many of my students were not in the classroom and did not have many opportunities to write or use writing supplies. Many are not able to hold the thinner pencils properly. These supplies will not only help to improve their handwriting, but will also expose them to art at a very early stage.

Although early in the school year, we are already running low on supplies such as pencils, crayons and markers. The thicker pencils will be used by the children that need them while the pencil grips will be used in the same manner.
