My Project

I have a really great group of first graders who really enjoy coming into the classroom to learn each day. I truly feel blessed to be their teacher. They are doing a good job of making progress; however, I would love to be able to provide them with some materials that could help with their learning in the classroom.

My students need chair pockets, pocket sleeves, laminating sheets, erasers, and dry erase markers to enhance their learning experience.

First, we are in need of chair pockets so that my students can organize their workbooks and other learning materials since our current ones are starting to break. My students are also in need of dry erase markers and pocket sleeves so they can practice spelling words we learn during our phonics lessons as well as practicing for our math drills. We use these markers quite often so I would like to have extras for when students need new ones. Last, we can use the laminating sheets in the classroom to laminate some of their best work as well as making certain activities I print out for them more durable.

Thank you so much for reading about my project. I truly hope you consider making a donation to support my students.
