Essential Supplies!

Help me give my students paper, crayons, scissors and other basic supplies that they use everyday.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Blaustein's classroom raised $401

My Project

We need some basic supplies that are used in our classroom. Paper, crayons and scissors are just some of the supplies used everyday in our class. The students in my class are so busy learning and drawing about the world around them. Art materials and sand are just some of the ways they express themselves.

Pre-K is all about expressing and showing what we know through the arts and play.

Please help my students get the basic materials they need so that they can “tell” the world what they learned with the modality that they feel most comfortable with.
