My Students

My students are an amazing group of third graders. They are enthusiastic about school and embrace everything we do in class. They love reading, P.E., math, and science. Our school is a kindergarten through eighth grade school located in rural California. It houses 450 students. Our school is surrounded by forests and mountains and has daily visitors such as geese, turkeys, and deer.

Our school has a strong academic culture.

I want to maintain our strength in this area by continuing to provide materials to enrich my students' experiences.

My Project

My students need basic supplies such as pens, construction paper, clipboards, dry erase markers and paperclips. All of these supplies are to refill our cupboards. Now that we are half way through the year we need replenish our well used supplies.

My students will use the construction paper for art projects.

The colors chosen will be used for holiday projects for the months of January to June. The clipboards will be used for students to use as a surface for students to do their classwork. The pens and dry erase markers will be used for correcting assignments and for demonstration lesson content on our whiteboard.
