My Project

The beginning of a school year is always an exciting time! With a new group comes new needs... One thing I have noticed is the students are always on the move...have more wobble stools will definitely be beneficial.

Organization is the key to an efficient, effective classroom!

My students thrive in an organized classroom and I am so excited for them to have these materials. They are independent workers and will be able to use these supplies successfully. The use of the binding machine will ensure that the students' journals and other books needed stay organized. Additionally, providing some basic school supplies like file folders, stapler and hole punch will allow my students to create their own books. We have a new Language Arts curriculum and the students will constantly be creating writing pieces.

Thank you for your time and consideration. We appreciate your continued support of our classroom.
