My Project

The fraction strips will help the students visualize and understand fractions in math! The organizers will help to keep the class in order by separating different subjects and keeping the papers neat. The sharpener will allow the students to be more independent with their materials. The erasers will be used as a reward for students who are doing the correct thing throughout the day. The clay will be used during "Artist of the Week" so they can express themselves.

My students are so creative and hardworking - I would love for them to have more materials to make the room special!

Ms. Butchen will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 11.
