My Project

The time has come to start yet another school year! With that being said, we are in need of some school supplies. Some will last the year and others will last but a few weeks and then I will be back. We will start off the year learning about and creating projects related to our identity.

With these crayons and colored paper, my students will be able to accurately depict themselves in their identity projects.

Science and social studies are my focus this year. Please help me and my third graders acquire the materials we need to start the year off with success! Here we come third grade!
