My Project

It's hard to believe that we are only a few weeks away from the end of another school year! This one FLEW by so fast! Now it's time to start thinking about the 25/26 school year which will be here before we know it.

While I am pretty well stocked with items, there are a few essentials that I will need to kick off the new school year in August.

I want to make sure from day one that expectations are set and students feel supported in their new classroom.

My students use interactive notebooks daily in my classroom. In order to keep the notebooks vivid and engaging, I use a lot of bright colored paper for their inserts. I also have students participating in centers or small group activities that require a lot of laminating.

I've selected some items for this project that will help continue to support my classroom, students, and ME! Thank you for your consideration!
