My Project

Sixth grade year is such an exciting time for students as they leave their elementary school behind and enter into a new, larger school. The materials from this project will help me to provide them with a fresh start in school and foster a sense of community in my classroom.

Most of my students come from low income households and cannot always afford to bring in simple supplies such as pencils or highlighters.

Using dry erase pocket sleeve and post-its will help my students when working around the classroom and in small groups. The glue, markers, and colored pencils will help my students to creatively express their learning. Thank you for all your help!
