My Project

We are requesting items for our classroom that will ensure we have all that is necessary for the rest of first grade. In first grade, we are very busy with engaging learning activities. Many of those are projects to help us master our academics and working with others. In our class, we pride ourselves on the work we complete. Our supplies are beginning to dwindle and we are not done learning yet! Your donation will ensure my students have all they need to get us through. We are excited to continue learning while starting to mentally prepared for the next grade!
