My Project

I am requesting a pencil sharpener, vacuum, paper cutter, and more. The supplies that I am requesting are crucial to student success in the classroom. Throughout the school day students pencils break and/or become dull. Therefore students need to sharpen their pencils. In the past the teacher has been the only one allowed to use the pencil sharpener due to usual pencil sharpeners being fragile and temperamental. The cheap pencil sharpeners break very easily and I find myself replacing them often.

I have researched pencil sharpeners and the one I am requesting has raving reviews for being durable.

When I get this new pencil sharpener I will be able to allow the students to sharpen their own pencils which will help students develop independence.

Other supplies included in this project will allow us to have a neat and organized clean classroom throughout the school day.
