My Project

I love that my students have been working so hard this year that we already need to refill our supplies! My students have been busy using their pencils and erasers to complete their assignments, crayons to draw pictures and create illustrations, and using plenty of notebook paper to practice their weekly words!!!

With 28 kids in the class, our supplies are already in need of being refilled!

In addition to academic supplies, our Kleenex supply to keep germs away has also been gone through quickly and we want to be prepared for the winter months ahead.
