Funded Oct 24, 2019I began writing my proposal for this project, I thought about the things we would need in the upcoming months. To keep ahead of the flu season, we ordered Clorox wipes, tissues and hand sanitizer. These have DEFINITELY come in handy in our New England climate! I knew my students would need to replenish their school supplies, so the pencils and folders were a necessary addition to our list. The colored pencils would be used in Social Studies/Science for projects and maps.
When the box was delivered, my students were excited to see what was inside. As I unpacked the box they gathered around and helped take out the supplies. They couldn't wait to open the Clorox wipes and clean the desks!!! We stopped the unpacking and everyone took a wipe and cleaned desk tops, tables and bookcases!! That has become a regular practice every Friday!!
We then put all the pencils and folders in our "classroom store". They will use their tickets they receive for homework completion, positive behavior and helping others to "buy" these new additions. The colored pencils we have already used to color in our maps in Social Studies and for a project on planets in Science class.
Thank you for making all this possible.”
