We need basic school supplies to help us learn and grow. We are unable to complete basic classwork and homework assignments because we do not have supplies in our classroom or at home. I want my students to be able to focus on their learning and academics rather than figuring out where to find a pencil and paper. Students should not have to worry about basic school supplies. Pencils and notebooks will ensure that my students are able to write down their assignments. Glue sticks will allow them to be creative during learning activities. Folders will help teach my students responsibility and organization by helping them keep track of all of their work in one place. Dry erase markers will help me to direct our instruction on the white board for students to observe. Please consider helping my students get back to the basics by providing them with school supplies.
