My Project

All of my students' activities are done on paper and with pencil. That means the two things we go through the most in our classroom is paper and pencils! This year, I wanted to give my students the opportunity to come into class and feel prepared for what's ahead of them. By providing them with supplies such as pencils, erasers, and more -- I'm giving my students the chance to focus on what's most important: learning. Rather than being distracted by what supplies they're missing, I'll be able to tell them there's no reason to worry!
