My Students

I teach a fourth and fifth-grade multi-age classroom, at an urban school district, in Washington. Many students at our school, come from low socioeconomic backgrounds, and need all of the resources they can get at school!

I am a sixth-year teacher, needing some help to get basic school supplies for my students to have a successful end of the school year!

I have binders that I have reused for the last several years and some of them are falling apart! Our classroom needs these supplies to end this year with everything that we need.

My Project

I am asking for binders for students, pencils, lead, and Expo markers. We have run out of these basic supplies that every classroom needs. Pencils and lead are precious gold in our classroom, because students lose theirs and are looking for them! We don't want students to be spending time asking and needing pencils, but I want to equip my students with a writing tool. Expo markers are critical during our small group teaching with whiteboards. Students love to work with whiteboards and I assess students using them often. We have a few left, and are having to use pencil and paper!

Please help me equip my classroom with the basic supplies that are need in every classroom.

These aren't supplemental materials, but really important needed tools. I appreciate you reading about these projects and I hope that you will consider donating! Thank you!
