My Project

We are just about midway through the year where supplies start to dwindle down but the students charisma is up! Our classroom is in need of several items such as colored pencils, crayons, and markers to finish out the school year.

Having these classroom essentials allow my students to express their creativity.

These classroom items are used on a daily basis across all subjects. It is also a way to differentiate how students learn and showcase their knowledge. Please help my students finish out the year with the supplies we need.

Mrs. Raber PS 123 Grades PreK-2
