Welcome to Our 6th Grade Science Space!

Help me give my students the supplies to freshen up their classroom space!

My Project

For years I have been asking for the bare basics to get ready for school. This year I am hoping to "Spruce up" our space with some fun new additions. Organization is key, and so is comfort.

Classroom clocks, pencil dispensers, water bottle holders, and calm strips are just a few new things I am hoping to bring to the classroom to allow the students to start their day right.

Headphones are great for independent work, and our classroom jobs space will give students responsibilities too! I am so looking forward to a great school year with this mish-mosh of supplies to get us going!
