My Project

For many of my students, having what they need in the classroom already helps their families. This project helps them to keep doing great and fun things in class. The special pencils promote positive behavior. Students always enjoy games and having them centered around math will enhance their learning. With your help, my students can continue to excel in school and have the supplies like composition notebooks, colored pencils, and glue they need to keep succeeding. There is nothing better than knowing there are people who are willing to help teachers and I can’t wait to share these items with my students.
