Hooray! This project is fully funded

I work with three grade levels in my Resource Room. My students primarily use pencil. An electric pencil sharpener would assist with my classes running smoothly helping with pencil sharpening proficiently and quick. A wall clock with minute and hour hands will assist with my lessons on time along with the time rubber stamp I am also requesting. Finally, student scissors will help current events lessons to flow smoothly with no more need to shard materials. Please consider helping my students have a more enriching work environment. Thank you for your time.

Students are in a special needs class and below grade level. The proper classroom supplies would help them to attain the ability to complete a higher level of academics.

Students will practice telling time daily by haveing a wall hand clock to refer to rather than a digital one. A quiet pencil sharpener will not distract students from class discussions.

You will make it possible for my students to have a free flowing learning environment that will allow them to gain the self esteem they need to excel academically, emotionally and socially.
