Yep, I've Finally Lost All My Marbles

Help me give my students marbles, pencils, erasers, dry erase markers, and other supplies that seem to get up on their own and walk out of our classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Edwards's classroom raised $272

This project is fully funded

My Project

Well, I probably didn't lose my marbles, but they certainly have all disappeared. My students are wonderful little people, but sometimes small things can end up in pockets and travel to other places instead of in our classroom. I really don't mind for the most part. Pencils, erasers, marbles for games, etc....they all are things that will be used wherever they end up and are easily replaced.

Please help me replenish things that have been used during our STEM time in class such as marbles for our Marble Runs, dry erase markers, pencils, and erasers.

They are simple little things that help the classroom run smoothly.
