My Project

Thank you so much for donating to my last project, "Keeping First Graders Busy and Happy."

This is a companion project to make sure the French class is also stocked up on the supplies they need to learn and grow.

We are a dual-language French Immersion school. The kids get half a day in English and half a day in French.

The French class needs magnets so they can work on STEM projects in class. The basic supplies will help develop their French vocabulary and daily writing skills. The paper and markers will be used to integrate the French language into their art projects, and to help organize their work.

Now that the English class is stocked up, we wanted to use the balance of your generous donations to make sure the French class has the supplies they need. These supplies will help our kids grow, learn, and stay organized.

Thank you again for your donations. You are making a difference in kids' lives!
