My Project

The ink, sharpener, and stapler have broken in our classroom so we have been struggling with pencils and papers for a bit. This would be so helpful to get these new supplies donated.

My students are very fidgety especially now that it is MCAS time.

Please help to give them fidget seats so that they can wiggle their bodies while continuing to work.

Scotch tape is for end of the year projects that I have planned for my class. These supplies will allow us to make fun, amazing, project based learning projects.
