My Project

This project allows students to walk into a welcoming classroom on their first day of school. An inviting reading carpet, freshly sharpened pencils, and all of their items labeled will make for a successful first day! Most of my students are from low-income households, and so I try to supply them with as many supplies as possible. I also strive to make my classroom as comfortable as possible for my students. This project being funded allows me to do this for all of my students. I am so excited for another awesome year in 5th grade with my students!
