My Project

This project are the little bits of a classroom that matter a whole lot. These items help students continue their responsibility to be leaders and maintain a organized space for learning. We will use sharpies to labels our books, the dustpan for spills and fixable mistakes. The posters will add to our social justice board to remind students they matter and they are seen! We appreciate you for looking at our projects and hopefully choosing us! The little things matter and your donation reminds our students of that while keeping them focused and inspired to grow.
