I particularly love that students who were not able to get some of the materials were able to use the materials that were now provided for them. Students took great care of these resources as well so that student will be able to use them for years down the road. Some students chose to use the colored pencils so that they could doodle some fun notes on the sides of worksheets while others opted to use them to organize their notes.\r\n Students were very happy to see that anything that they could have needed was provided in the class room so that they did not have to purchase extra materials.

My students love it so so much. One student found out that they play lefthanded in ping pong but they play right handed in every other sport and everything else they do in school as well.
