My Project

Active involvement in classroom lessons leads to enhanced educational experiences. Students will be actively engaged and motivated as they are using the supplies requested in this project! We will use the pencil boxes to replace current ones in need of repair, erasers and lollipops as rewards for outstanding behavior, magnetic hooks to organize classroom materials, and the glitter star stickers will help to track success with Math facts.

Children are motivated and excited about learning when they are actively involved in the classroom.

It is my goal to make learning fun and interactive. The materials requested in this project will increase understanding of the concepts third graders need to be successful. Thank you for considering our classroom to support!!
