My Project

We are gearing up for a new school year and we are getting ready by creating an environment of learning and safety for my 2nd grade students. These bubbling students are ready to learn, grow and make our classroom their home. Having seat sacks will help the students keep their materials safe. The dry-erase dots and mini erasers will allow students to engage in their learning. The Clorox wipes and hand sanitizer will help keep our class healthy and clean. The posters and punch cards will motivate students to do their best in class.

With these materials, students can be organized, present their proud work, stay clean, and be ready to learn with as minimal distractions as possible.

My 2nd graders are still getting used to the school flow and the new routines so thank you for helping them adjust and grow.

In my class, I will have students who are English language learners, new to the country, struggling with enough materials at home, and in need of extra support. With your contributions, I can help establish an encouraging and motivating environment where we can build a home together.
