My Project

Our Second Grade Class is in desperate need of some anchor charts. We are asking for bright color markers and sharpies in order to make them to display around our classroom.

I plan to use these markers to make anchor charts for both Math and Science for TEK being taught.

Our class doesn’t have any anchor charts at the moment. We are in desperate need of markers in order to make them. Anything is appreciated and greatly helpful to help us with our learning journey in our 2nd Grade classroom.
