My Project

I'm a teacher of first graders in the Bronx. They are so smart and so excited to learn. These materials will really help enhance their learning and my ability to teach them. These materials help their classroom stay organized and allow them to learn! These materials will help with all kinds of projects from writing to reading to math. We need pencils to write. The timer will be a great visual for group work. These kids don't always come from the best home and I want them to feel at home in their classroom. The more organized and clean the better for these students! We thank you in advance for your generosity in helping to get our classroom ready!
