My Project

This project will help provide students supplies needed in the classroom. As our middle school does not have lockers, students have to walk around with all of their belongings. This does not allow students enough space in their backpacks to carry art supplies needed for many projects.

My goals for this project is to provide necessary supplies such as glue sticks (used often and with short lifespans) and paper that can be used for a variety of projects in the class.

In addition, scissors are often needed but few students have.

With this project, valuable class time will be saved. Students will not be wasting time sharing supplies and asking to borrow supplies from each other. Students will not feel stressed to bring these items from home either.
