My Project

As a 2nd-grade teacher, I am dedicated to providing my students with the best learning experience possible. However, we are in need of a few essential supplies that will help us continue to thrive in the classroom.

Our class would greatly benefit from your support with basic supplies to keep our classroom running.

The following items are needed:

Pencils - A classroom of energetic second-graders needs plenty of pencils! These are essential for our daily activities, from writing assignments to math problems.

A New Pencil Sharpener - Our current pencil sharpener has seen better days, and it's becoming harder to keep up with the number of students needing their pencils sharpened.

Printer Ink - We use a lot of printed materials for activities, worksheets, and projects. The printer ink will ensure that we can continue to print resources without interruption.

Two New Math Books - These books will support our math curriculum and provide additional learning resources to reinforce the concepts we are covering in class.

These supplies will directly impact my students' ability to learn, create, and engage in their education. With your support, we can make sure that these young learners have the tools they need to succeed!

Thank you for considering helping our class. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will make a big difference!
