My Project

We are in need of some more books to add to our classroom library, so we have a wide variety of books for students to enjoy

We are also in need of some basic classroom supplies for a successful classroom.

My students love the mechanical pencils. I would like to have enough for each of them to use. We would also like a pencil sharpener for when we do not have mechanical pencils or have things like colored pencils that needs to be sharpened.

My students would also love some more craft supplies like tape, googly eyes, brads, and markers, which are used often when we are doing projects.
