My Project

It is that time of year again for all my kiddies to get ready to come back to school. I teach special education in a Title I community school. With everything they are worried about like clean clothes, book bags, shoes, etc; I do not want them to worry about not having school supplies.

This project will allow me to provide my students with the school supplies they need to get started for the school year.

Folders are always the most difficult supply to last the school year, so my classroom is in need of many of them. Helping my students with hands-on learning means using various techniques which include scissors and glue sticks. The hardest supplies to receive are the ones that most of think are so easy and obtainable, but unfortunately not for my students.
