My Project

Before we know it the summer will be over and a new school year will be starting. I would like to welcome my students back with some basic school supplies that will make their return special. When I was a student, I LOVED new school supplies, and I know my students feel the same. Not only are new supplies fun, notebooks will teach the students how to organize their materials and take notes where the pens, pencils and highlighters are used to find important information and annotate text. I am requesting these materials because quality school supplies last for the entire year. I also want to ensure equity in my classroom by making sure all students have access to the same quality of school supplies.
