My students do a lot of project-based learning that requires basic school supplies. Since we tend to use them frequently, we often run out of the supplies we need fairly quickly. The file folders will be used for projects, as well as for each individual student so he/she can keep track of all their work to take ownership of it. Also, students will benefit from the clipboards and dry erase boards because they allow the students to move around the room and learn. Lastly, the books are going to help teach my students parts of speech which is a struggle for them.
