My Project

We may take basic classroom materials, such as markers, tissues, and paper for granted, however they are used in our classroom every day. They get their wear and tear and break mid-way through the school year, which leaves us the remainder of the school year without these essentials. During the cold season, our students require many tissues that we grow through a box a day sometimes. Our students are extremely lucky to have their own computers, however having their own headphones will be great for students to focus on just their work, instead of getting distracted by other students' computer noise.
