My Project

I am trying to get a head start on the new school year, and am asking for your help! I hope to have everything my students need to start our year off successfully. I am asking for some essentials that we use on a daily basis, such as: erasers for their whiteboards, pencil pouches, water bottles (they can drink some water) and pencil erasers. I am also asking for some of their favorite treats/snacks to reward them with.

Help me give my students a bean bag for comfortable reading and flexible seating, along with essentials for learning!

My students love having a fun learning environment and I want to be able to give that to them. Thank you for helping my babies!
