My Project

Each year, my students use up lots of materials as they grapple with new content, and also display their learning in new and exciting ways. That said, I need your help in restocking my classroom with new easel pad paper, markers, giant post-its, etc to be sure that we are ready for each new activity throughout the year!

Additionally, my classroom has a lending library where students can borrow books to read outside of the classroom, often during longer breaks from school, and we need more books!

We lost quite a few during the COVID shutdown and there are a few new titles I'd like to add. Students find such joy in the connection to the world and to other identities that these books can bring.

Finally, I need a monitor to help my old eyes grade writing assignments! I have tried for too long to grade writing on my little laptop and I need a bigger screen! Any help you can lend is much appreciated and will go a long way in making my students and I feel supported as we embark on a new school year!
