Crafting Supplies

Help me give my students crafting supplies to foster their creative and crafty minds.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Witherite's classroom raised $485

This project is fully funded

My Project

These items will reach many different types of students. These supplies will allow the students to use their hands to express their creative sides. It will allow them to take a break from learning and unwind and relax before they get back to the learning. My goals for this project is allowing the students to have access to these supplies that they don't already have the access to. Many of my students love to be creative and are very artistic, but don't have either the money for these supplies or the access.

Ms. Witherite Westlake Elementary School Grades 6-8
