Supplies for a Magical Second Half of the Year!

Help me give my students supplies we need to be successful the rest of the year. I've asked for a pencil sharpener, spoons for breakfast and a microphone when my students are reading aloud.

My Project

By March, markers are drying out, paper is used up, and learning still needs to be progressing and engaging! Help me get a new pencil sharpener (a elementary classroom essential), a microphone to help my more reluctant readers find their voice (especially during our Spanish literacy time) and re-stock our classroom store with some really exciting item (for our classroom economy). The spoons are for students to use when they've forgotten to get one for breakfast. The alarm clock has many advantages--including students being able to keep track of time and being responsible for their own learning time.

Budgets are tight this time of year and we need to re-stock some essential materials in order to have a really amazing second part of our school year.

My students are creative, hardworking and resilient and I love seeing them thrive when we have all the materials we need. My students are the pilots, judges, soccer players and dentists of the future--these supplies will help us reach our goals.

Thank you for considering our project and thank you for believing in my students!
