My Project

It becomes difficult to run a classroom when you need more pencils to ensure your students can do their work. Yep, that's right I am just asking for pencils and an electric pencil sharpener. We go through so many pencils. I also use the specialty pencils for prizes and classroom incentives. Learning never stops in Room 130! It would be great to have a pencil sharpener that sharpens pencils quickly and effectively.

This project will ensure that my students will have enough pencils to get through the school year.

Your support and donation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read my project.
