My Project

As this school year winds down, I look back at all the amazing things that our classroom used this year.

I created a project to help us get started with the right supplies in September.

We go through a lot of markers and pencil every day! The pencils disappear almost as fast as I put them out. I use the dry erase boards and markers on a daily basis for small group instruction, review, and on the spot assessments.

We go on a lot of field trips. I mean at least one field trip a month. We wear our school name and phone number on a string. The lanyards I am asking for would make it easier for our tags not to get tangled and be more comfortable and durable for my students.

Tissues are always a huge necessity in our classroom, especially in the beginning of the year!

All of these supplies will help my classroom get started on the right track in September.
