My Project

As the school year winds down now is the time I start thinking about what my classroom lacked this year, and what supplies made this school year a success for myself and my students.

I am asking for supplies that will help my student achieve their goals, and be successful.

I am asking for dry erase erasers because we use them every day in our classroom. I am also asking for themed pencils. Students get so excited when they can have a special treat for the holidays.

All of these supplies will kick off our new year to a great start!
