My Project

In my third-grade classroom, learning is an exciting journey filled with curiosity, creativity, and discovery. Each day, my students engage in hands-on activities, critical thinking exercises, and collaborative learning experiences that help them grow into confident and capable learners. However, to make the most of our time together, they need access to essential supplies—especially pencils and dry-erase markers, which are the backbone of our daily learning routines.

These tools encourage engagement, provide opportunities for immediate feedback, and make learning more interactive.

Pencils are used for everything from practicing math problems to writing stories, while dry-erase markers allow my students to actively participate in lessons using their personal whiteboards. Unfortunately, these supplies run out quickly and keeping them stocked throughout the year can be challenging.

With your generous support, my students will have the materials they need to stay focused and ready to learn. By ensuring that every child has access to basic classroom essentials, you are helping to create an environment where all students can thrive. Thank you for investing in their education and future!
