This is a great way to receive materials for your classroom.
I, personally, have received 6 grants. I have received tons
of posters, printers, paper cutters, paper, cardstock, etc
that I would have otherwise purchased on my own or done
without.
It doesn't take much time and is very easy. Good Luck. I'll
be writing several more once I move to Kansas and obtain a
teaching position there.
