My Project

Please help me provide classroom basic supplies for my students. Sticky notes are essential in reading comprehension. My students love color coding plot elements with sticky notes.

Kleenex, pens, folders, highlighters, and a pencil sharpener are necessary basic classroom supplies.

My students work hard and often use these essential items. This project will give my students replacement items after they wear out classroom supplies through use.

Not only are highlighters necessary , but they are also an engagement too. My students enjoy highlighting text evidence. A good pencil sharpener students are able to use, keeps their penmanship on track.
