My Project

My students love doing projects and I noticed on the last project, that my students did not have certain colors when they were attempting to color their body biographies. I want to be able to supply students with all the supplies they need in order to create beautiful projects that will be hung in the hallway.

My students are kind, hardworking, and work well together.

I look forward to being able to provide them with what they need in order to create quality work.

My students love seeing their work in the hallways. I love giving them time to shine so having the necessary supplies to allow them to show off their writing and creativity is important to me.
