My Project

This year since I am only teaching Math and Science, I see more than one class per day. Because of this it is really important to keep each classes' materials and work organized and easy to access.

Help me get my students organized and fully equipped to do all the fun and amazing math projects we do everyday.

They work hard at making sure all their materials go back to the correct basket and location in the classroom so they can easily access it the following day. These supplies I am asking for will really help with this. Some of the other materials like the colored construction paper and large white paper are needed for the kids to do all the amazing math and science projects we do.
