My Project

I am requesting some odds and ends to help my current students wrap up the final nine weeks of this school year and to get ready for the beginning of next year! For example, we need some basic supplies such as pencils, wipes, sanitizer and tissues for this current school year. These supplies will help my students stay healthy, especially the Kleenex and Clorox wipes, and help them take care of their needs and keep them accountable for helping clean the tables to stay healthy. We have two field trips coming up and we will use these supplies on our trips, too.

Ink refill, glue sticks, batteries, and labels will help us with upcoming projects.

We have run out of glue sticks. We love doing hands on art activities so we go through them pretty quickly, so they are quite a necessity. The ink will allow my students to have their projects printed out to illustrate and activities to complete during math.

Items such as the worry stones, bracelets, Diwali lacing crafts, and birthday items will help my students feel special and welcome at the beginning of the year and promote learning about others. Packing tape, a monthly planner, dry erase markers, binder tabs, calendar pieces, a whistle and paw print stickers will help us stay organized and make sure we are ready for the beginning of next school year by allowing me to tape name strips on the tables, plan activities, have markers to write with and paw print stickers to give to my students as they achieve goals to encourage them to be "proud panthers."
