My Students

My students love to learn. They are like little sponges soaking up everything I have to share with them. They enjoy learning new tricks and drawing out what they have learned.

Our school is located in a small community that does everything it can to support the school, teachers, and students.

Fourth grade is a year where they are no longer treated as babies but are expected to be independent and strong. I hope to provide them with all the materials they will need to make that happen.

My Project

I am requesting some basic health and wellness items such as Clorox wipes, paper towels, tissues and deodorant for my students and our classroom. I am also requesting a welcome mat to put outside our door to let everyone know they are always welcomed.

Doesn’t it always feel good to come home to a freshly smelling clean house?

That’s what I’m hoping to be able to provide my students. I want them to feel at home and proud to be there!

By providing our classroom with some much needed cleaning supplies along with personal hygiene items, our room should stay fresh and clean.
