Work Smarter Not Harder
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hammock's classroom raised $606
This project is fully funded
My Project
In Kindergarten we are making books for our students multiple times a week. With over 100 students in our grade level, it takes a long time to make these books. Our staplers are constantly jamming our go missing from the workroom.
Having an adjustable electrical stapler in our Kindergarten pod will help us make these books so much more efficiently!
Not only will my class benefit from this stapler all the kindergarteners for years to come will benefit from this amazing resource! Our students won't have to worry about their books just being folded or staples poking them constantly.
This classroom project was brought to life by DonorsChoose Board Member W. Kamau Bell
and 7 other donors.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
