My Project

Our library is a very special place.

Our library is a place where all students can come to find that book that is just right for them!

Our goal is for students to see the library and a place to create and explore. We want our library to have supplies that students need, as well as supplies that students want.

I am asking for a variety of pens, Sharpies, and pencils with a pencil sharpener. These supplies will be available for students to use as they explore new topics and take notes for research proejctx.

I am also asking for sticker and bookmarks. These will be used to reward students who are demonstrating our PBIS goals of being Ready, Respectful, and Responsible.

I am looking forward to filling our library with the supplies my students need. Thank you for helping me achieve this goal.
