Setting Up our Room for a Great Year!

My Project

This coming year, I will have a new set of fifth graders who will be counting down the days until the end of their elementary years! I want to make sure that I have the materials to help them shoot for the stars. These materials will go a long way toward allowing them to grow both personally and educationally.

Having fresh supplies to start the year will really help my students keep their hopes high for another successful year!

I am asking for pencils, rulers, glue sticks, markers and other basic supplies. I am also requesting baskets and 3-Drawer Stacking Desktop Organizers to put the supplies in. These materials will help them to stay organized at their desk or give them the chance to write with either pencils or dry erase markers. I am also asking for computer mice, some flexible cushions and wipes that I know my students will use every day. The bulletin board materials will also give me a chance to help set up a classroom that will engage students with their learning!
