Supplies for Classrooms

My Project

Our teachers have specifically requested. Our supplies are very limited, and we can't support their request. These supplies will be used in our classrooms. The students will use the supplies during Strong Start.

Strong start is where our students first enter the building and work together on hands on projects to get them out of their seat, moving and interacting with each other in small groups.

Our students will use the construction paper to create placemats for their harvesting feast, and other art projects. The students grow, harvest and prepare a salad for a shared feast with other students and parents. We are looking for the construction paper to help support their art project of creating their own placemat which will focus on things they are thankful for this year.

They may get into groups with students they don't normally work with, and this will help support new partnerships. This time is essential because it helps them start the day off right by communicating in a positive way.
