My Project

We are nearing the end of the year and some of our supplies are dwindling. We use these things every day, sometimes multiple times through the day. Our pencil sharpener gets quite a workout between pencils and colored pencils. It is starting to sound like it won't keep on sharpening for us.

Fun, new seats to read in will help keep the love of reading alive!

A few more seating options will give students another comfy place to read a book that love in our classroom. The interesting shape of the seats will pique their interest.

Mrs. Gutwald will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 11.
