**YOUR TRASH COULD BE OUR TREASURE!**

Family Donations

Our class uses a wide variety of materials in our learning centers.  There are several inexpensive items on our wish list that we need for projects and art activities.  If you can provide any of these items we would greatly appreciate it!  You may send the items to school in your child's backpack or drop them off in the classroom.

          "Beautiful Junk"

bullet Paper plates- regular and small sizes, unwaxed, the cheaper the better

Corporate Donations Also Accepted

It is a popular misconception that all materials needed in a public school classroom are provided by the school district.  Public school teachers spend on average $1,000 or more per year out of their own pocket on items used exclusively by children in the classroom.  Our room is no exception, that is why we seek corporate donations to help defray the cost of these items.   If you are interested in sponsoring our class by donating items please click on the banner below to view a more comprehensive list.  You can search for our class wish list by using the school address.
