My Project

I am so excited to meet a new group of third grade scholars next month! To prepare for my new scholars, I have created a list of supplies to set up my students for a successful school year.

I included many of the basic supplies to get us through our year together including whiteboard markers, post it notes, colored paper, publishing pens, and new Sharpies for art projects.

Additionally, there are some household items requested to keep our classroom a warm and nurturing learning environment. For example, we would love a new supply cart to organize our small group literacy materials and some replacement bulbs for our bistro lights. And one of my students' favorite first day of school snacks is our yummy Goldfish that say "You are O-FISH-ALLY in 3rd grade!" I love this small way of welcoming new students into our class family and making sure they feel loved.

Teachers Pay Teachers is a wonderful website where I can purchase learning materials created by other teachers for my students to use. These resources proved to be so meaningful and valuable for my students last year, so I would love to continue using this website as a learning resource for my students.

Thank you so much for donating towards some really incredible supplies that will help make Room 22 feel like a second home for some really wonderful young people this fall. We appreciate you!
