My Project

This project intends to support three teachers, two of which in their very first year of teaching, as they build collaborative learning communities. Many of the items requested are traditional classroom supplies, however, with a touch of magic and creativity, these supplies will elevate student engagement for even the most apathetic learner. This project includes items such as poster boards, colored paper, markers, glue sticks, rulers, as well as snacks, board games, and fidget toys.

With a high population of special education students, hands on activities are essential to achieving their learning goals.

These items will ensure that our students succeed as they navigate complex texts and topics.

Since our team includes two brand new teachers, we are starting from scratch on supplies. We have very little items to work with at this time. We know we are requesting a lot of items, but we appreciate the support!

Ms. Barbara Washington - Liberty High School Grades 9-12
