My Project

The end of the 2022-23 school year has come to an end. With the end of the academic school year comes reflection. As I sit and ponder over what my students needed this school year that I wish to provide for my new students this upcoming school year, more than one item popped up. All school year, there was a steady demand for pencils, erasers, a pencil sharpeners, and tissue. The next question is if all of these supplies are given to each student, how can I hold each student responsible for their supplies?

In comes The Magic Pencil Pouch.

This project will be used to provide each student with a pencil pouch. Each pencil pouch will hold pencils, erasers, a pencil sharpener, filing tabs to organize notes, and tissue. The students will keep their pencil pouches in their binder which is kept in class. Problem solved!
