My Project

It becomes difficult to run a classroom when you need more pencils and dry erase markers to ensure your students can do their work. Yep, that's right I am just asking for pencils and dry erasers. This will ensure that my students will have enough them to get through the school year. In our classroom, we use Dry Erase Lapboards for many of our spelling, phonics, and math activities. Markers are a must to make this happen.

We use pencils and dry eraser markers every day in our learning.

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