My Project

Hello, this project is to stock a classroom with the necessary supplies to begin the 24-25 school year. My school has only had one third grade class until this year and the classroom will be starting from scratch. I would like to replicate the same procedures and practices in this new classroom as I do now in my second-grade classroom.

Smooth classroom procedures are dependent on having the correct materials at hand for students to use.

My classroom needs whiteboards, clipboards, seat pads, and Seat Sacks to establish routines for learning in places other than desks. I also need dry-erase markers, erasers, book bins, pencils, and a pencil sharpener as basic supplies to start the year off right!

Thank you so much for being interested in contributing to a third-grade classroom!
