My Project

Pencils are almost the equivalent to gold to teachers. These pencils will supply our math classroom and intervention for the whole year! It is a great feeling as a teacher and student to know that this simple tool is always available to you, whether it is a broken pencil or a student forgetting theirs! Wipes are another thing that is a necessity in our room. It helps keep our room clean, and we tend to fly through them, especially in cold and flu season! Thank you for considering helping our students!
