My Project

The basics in our class include things like colored copy paper to help us stay organized with all the papers that go home and zipper pouches to hold our writing implements. We need crayons to make our work come to life and staples to hold similarly grouped items together. We need binder clips to display work on our walls and tape to fix the mistakes of ripped papers. Clipboards and whiteboards help us be able to move freely around our classroom to complete our work and give us the ability to learn in different settings.

Staying organized in class and having the appropriate materials makes us a successful bunch of scholars.

My students are always grateful to have the supplies they need here in our class, even if their parents cannot afford the items for them.
