My Project

Help my students start the year off in a fun and exciting new classroom by giving them the chance to communicate, create, organize and learn with new books, games, incentives, and orginizational tools! My students are in fourth grade and are curious and playful. They’re always ready to explore something new and love hands-on materials in the classroom.

This year, we need more books for our classroom library.

I’m requesting several different picture books for a variety of classroom community building lessons. The binders I have requested will help me organize these lessons. My students also need candy, small prizes, and games as incentives for various goals they will be meeting throughout the year. I’m also requesting a library book scanner, a cordless glue gun, pens, and sticky tack to help with classroom set up and library organization. An organized and aesthetically pleasing classroom will help to keep students engaged and focused on learning.
